Hi,

I don't use d-bus much, since I don't use desktop environments and I
tend to use light and configured things like autofs, fluxbox itself
and the like.

On my x86-64 machine running under arch-linux, I tried starting dbus
sessions prior to executing fluxbox as follows:

dbuslaunch="`which dbus-launch 2>/dev/null`"
if [ -n "$dbuslaunch" ] && [ -x "$dbuslaunch" ] && [ -z
"$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" ]; then
  eval `$dbuslaunch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`
fi
exec startfluxbox

And it starts OK...  Problem is if I leave X to do something in the
console, and come back to X, fluxbox is already frozen.  Also some
times if I don't do that, eventyually fluxbox freezes, but I can't
associate any event triggering this eventual freeze, perhaps just more
than a minute or so of time.  I didn't expect any of this to happen...

I opted for not starting the dbus session, though my expectation is to
enable it back when possible so things like pcmanfm work OK...

Has anyone experienced the same?

Thanks,
