[IP-] [ ] xfce-base/thunar-1.6.2:0 [IP-] [ ] xfce-extra/thunar-volman-0.8.0:0 'ck-list-sessions' when run as a regular user returns: ** Message: Failed to connect to the D-Bus daemon: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory I'll go ahead and do as instructed in the forum post you supplied.
