[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#522492: /usr/bin/nm-applet: GNOME session startup problems with nm-applet

[Petri Kaurinkoski]

Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 0.6.6-4
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/nm-applet

Earlier this week I updated my Debian/testing system, just as I
regularly
do. Next time I logged in after the installations, gnome-session would
not
start up normally. After the normal login dialog it took a 30 seconds 
for my normal desktop to appear, and I got a GNOME-error dialog telling
me:

	"There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon."

The dialog also said:

	"Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote
application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy
blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection
was broken."

I looked at my .xsession-errors for more details, and the first few
interesting lines were:

SESSION_MANAGER=local/ressu:@/tmp/.ICE-unix/5160,unix/ressu:/tmp/.ICE-unix/5160
Window manager warning: Failed to read saved session
file /home/kaurinko/.metacity/sessions/default0.ms: Failed to open file
'/home/kaurinko/.metacity/sessions/default0.ms': No such file or
directory
Initializing gnome-mount extension

** (nm-applet:5192): WARNING **: <WARN>  nma_dbus_init(): could not
acquire its service.  dbus_bus_acquire_service() says: 'Connection
":1.32" is not allowed to own the service
"org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo" due to security policies in the
configuration file'


(gnome-panel:5180): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt
to allocate widget with width -9 and height 24

The nm-applet warning started to repeat itself with a regular interval
until I killed the nm-applet process.

I fully understand the bug I am experiencing may be elsewhere, but I
really
do not get a grip on the issue. I just installed some updates and as a
consequence something stopped working.

I will be glad to help you locate the problem to get it fixed.

Best regards,

Petri Kaurinkoski
