If you're using a WM, it's your own reponsibility to setup dbus when starting your session. A DE will do this for you. Typically, you can start your WM using `dbus-run-session `, at least for Wayland. I'm not familiar with X11 but maybe you can use the same command. That said, I'm not sure dbus is the problem with chromium, since you're still having the same network error when starting it with `dbus-launch chromium`...

[gentoo-user] chromium and dbus...
It looks like chromium has no freakin idea how to use dbus... A decenently good OS would provide an IPC mechanism and little else. =| So basically this is just a hack-layer to get around the inherent fact that linux is garbage. Dbus is in my runlevels and shows no errors when I poke it with the script in /etc/init.d I've been limping along on Konqueror and it is generating completely routine dbus traffic no issues: atg@tortoise ~ $ dbus-monitor --session [] signal time=1682692275.716176 sender=:1.5 -> destination=(null destination) serial=339394 path=/KonqHistoryManager; interface=org.kde.Konqueror.HistoryManager; member=notifyHistoryEntry array of bytes [ 00 00 00 68 00 68 00 74 00 74 00 70 00 73 00 3a 00 2f 00 2f 00 77 00 77 00 77 00 2e 00 66 00 72 00 65 00 65 00 64 00 65 00 73 00 6b 00 74 00 6f 00 70 00 2e 00 6f 00 72 00 67 00 2f 00 77 00 69 00 6b 00 69 00 2f 00 49 00 6e 00 74 00 72 00 6f 00 64 00 75 00 63 00 74 00 69 00 6f 00 6e 00 54 00 6f 00 44 00 42 00 75 00 73 00 2f ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 25 89 9f 02 41 f0 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 25 89 9f 02 41 f0 04 00 00 00 00 08 00 3a 00 31 00 2e 00 35 ] signal time=1682692276.678553 sender=:1.5 -> destination=(null destination) serial=339395 path=/KonqHistoryManager; interface=org.kde.Konqueror.HistoryManager; member=notifyHistoryEntry array of bytes [ 00 00 00 68 00 68 00 74 00 74 00 70 00 73 00 3a 00 2f 00 2f 00 77 00 77 00 77 00 2e 00 66 00 72 00 65 00 65 00 64 00 65 00 73 00 6b 00 74 00 6f 00 70 00 2e 00 6f 00 72 00 67 00 2f 00 77 00 69 00 6b 00 69 00 2f 00 49 00 6e 00 74 00 72 00 6f 00 64 00 75 00 63 00 74 00 69 00 6f 00 6e 00 54 00 6f 00 44 00 42 00 75 00 73 00 2f ff ff ff ff 00 00 00 24 00 49 00 6e 00 74 00 72 00 6f 00 64 00 75 00 63 00 74 00 69 00 6f 00 6e 00 54 00 6f 00 44 00 42 00 75 00 73 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 25 89 9f 02 41 f3 c6 00 00 00 00 00 00 25 89 9f 02 41 f3 c6 00 00 00 00 08 00 3a 00 31 00 2e 00 35 ] method call time=1682692306.604101 sender=:1.82 -> destination=org.freedesktop.DBus serial=1 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=Hello Today's update did nothing to chromium.
