After recent upgrade of many ports I cannot start either firefox2 or kazehakase on alpha FBSD 6.4-release. (Both worked fine before the upgrade). When I try to launch either browser I see something like this: % ps ax|grep dbus 94452 ?? Ss 0:00.00 /usr/local/bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 7 --print-address 9 --sessi 94448 p0 S+ 0:00.05 dbus-launch --autolaunch c147699dcd782c00b8cb56ec49707d8a --binary-syntax 94451 p0 S+ 0:00.00 dbus-launch --autolaunch c147699dcd782c00b8cb56ec49707d8a --binary-syntax 94463 p2 R+ 0:00.00 grep dbus % The dbus-launch processes never exit, which they should do according the man page. I wonder if this is the problem? With kazehakase I get a further error message when I try to kill unresponsive kazehakase process: GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://www.gnome.org/projects/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: Failed to execute dbus-launch to autolaunch D-Bus session) Please help. many thanks anton -- Anton Shterenlikht Room 2.6, Queen's Building Mech Eng Dept Bristol University University Walk, Bristol BS8 1TR, UK Tel: +44 (0)117 928 8233 Fax: +44 (0)117 929 4423 --8A9CA8FC08.1232111947/mx1.freebsd.org-- ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Anton Shterenlikht Room 2.6, Queen's Building Mech Eng Dept Bristol University University Walk, Bristol BS8 1TR, UK Tel: +44 (0)117 928 8233 Fax: +44 (0)117 929 4423
