Something started on the session bus has access to the system bus, not the other way round. The obvious thing to do might be to have per-session-bus peers for session manager and configuration manager, which will in turn communicate with the systemwide processes (via some private channel, which might not even use D-Bus). _______________________________________________ dbus mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dbus
