I think it only explains part of it. Scenario A: _ dbus is running on localhost; _ I run Konsole and start Emacs from there; _ I get the warning (but DBUS is running!!!); _ after I exit Emacs, Konsole usually closes, but not always (!!!). Scenario B: _ dbus is running on localhost; _ I run Konsole and SSH into another box; _ on the remote box dbus is not running; _ I run Emacs, get the warning and DBUS is started; _ after I exit Emacs I cannot close Konsole unless I also close DBUS. So your explanation fits the second scenario perfectly, but does not explain the first. Also, I read I shouldn't run DBUS on the remote machine, but let Emacs connect to the one on localhost? Is this true? How do I do it? Should I run DBUS from rc on every box? bye & Thanks av.
