I am seeing this bug, too. Here is a summary:
- because of dbus buggyness I have to restart it sometimes:
# /etc/init.d/dbus restart
(I know how to fix the mess afterward and how to get networkmanager
working again :>)
- one of the consequences is that two console-kit-daemon processes are
running:
$ ps aux | grep console
root 6102 0.0 0.1 13140 2892 ? Ssl May26 0:14
/usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon
root 24182 0.0 0.0 8868 1956 ? Ssl 09:24 0:00
/usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon
(/etc/init.d/dbus starts the second one but fails to kill the first one)
- the new console-kit-daemon process spams my syslog with the following
messages (one message every 3 seconds !):
May 29 09:45:03 vougeot console-kit-daemon[24182]: WARNING: Failed to acquire
org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit
May 29 09:45:03 vougeot console-kit-daemon[24182]: WARNING: Could not acquire
name; will retry
There are at least 3 things to fix to improve the situation:
1. fix the original dbus problem (I will report another bug for this...)
2. have /etc/init.d/dbus kill old console-kit-daemon processes
3. reduce the number of console-kit-daemon warning messages to one
