I also see no reason to add dbus-launch to .xinitrc. On my system I
start dbus with a bootscript, I can see it in ps aux as:
dbus-daemon --system
but I also see:
dbus-launch --autolaunch 465105239381aefc38f1f5e20000020d --binary-syntax 
--close-stderr
and:
/usr/bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 5 --print-address 7 --session
so it seems that something that uses it (notification-daemon?) uses
dbus-launch to spawn another dbus-daemon for the session even though
there is one running for the system. I don't think the system one is
needed.
