(In reply to comment #0) seconding the report you can disable the hal useflag as a workaround (In reply to comment #2) > you can disable the hal useflag as a workaround thanks, -hal worked ... i had tried -dbus, which didn't. Which version of DBus are you running (emerge -pv dbus output would be perfect, if you don't use portage, then whatever command shows what version is installed and with what useflags works great. Even eix's output would be great as long as you update its database first.) and does anything show up in the system log when you attempt to start thunar. Someone said that a workaround is to emerge it -hal - this could possibly be an issue with some of the stricter rules that dbus enforces. We may need to request the newer hal be stabled, although I cannot say for certain. Can you also attach (or paste into a comment on here, no pastebin for this) the .conf file in /etc/dbus/system.d for thunar? Finally, have you rebuilt hal/anything linked against dbus? looks like http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=279077 hit us So i just found some time to test it. i added my user to the plugdev group, logged out and back in again and thunar works. So i guess this could be marked as invalid or whatever is more appropriate. It happened to me after updating to sys-apps/dbus-1.2.24 Created attachment 228051 [details]
Hal's configuration file (under /etc/dbus-1/system.d/)
I've updated the title (with versions).
I put some results here anyway :
eix results :
[I] sys-apps/dbus
Available versions: 1.2.3-r1 1.2.24 [M]~1.3.0 [M]~1.3.0-r1 {X debug doc selinux test}
Installed versions: 1.2.24(19:07:58 04/08/10)(X -debug -doc -selinux -test)
[I] xfce-base/thunar
Available versions: 1.0.1 [M]~1.1.0 {dbus debug doc exif gnome hal pcre startup-notification test +trash-plugin}
Installed versions: 1.0.1(17:48:12 03/20/10)(dbus gnome hal pcre trash-plugin -debug -doc -exif -startup-notification -test)
I've joined a conf file (as requested). I didn't found the thunar one.
I've added my user to the plugdev group... the bug's still here.
I'll try the -hal useflag and give you some news.
I've added the useflag « -hal » to thunar (in /etc/portage/package.use) and it works now ! > I'll try the -hal useflag and give you some news. No. You only have to add your user to the plugdev group via gpasswd -a $youruser plugdev and then log out and in again. Se the bug i linked in Comment #5 . reopen for correct resolution I've re-added the hal useflag (delete the line in package.use), recompile thunar. Use the gpasswd command, log off and log on. Thunar works now. Thanks ! |
