Hi all
I recently posted the following query on this list
I'm running a freshly installed sl51 and on login get a very annoying
message from the gnome-settings-manager about being unable to
contact to socket: /tmp/dbus-kjsdfhjd : connection refused.
:
but had no replies -- I post a solution for the sake of the archive.
Further research on Google revealed that this problem can be caused
by an old bug in dbus, which introduced a race condition on pipes
being closed at the time a process wanted to write to them.
I tried to update dbus within SL51 but found a cascade of dependencies
made this "too interesting" to follow through. A clean install of SL54 on
the same hardware (and with the same corporate setup) fixes the
problem for me.
Cheers
Jim
