sysvinit.

martin at shambhala:~> ls -al /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root messagebus 316864 Sep 21 21:16 /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper

Hmmm, for some reason I have some experimental dbus version:

martin at shambhala:~> LANG=C apt-cache policy $(dpkg -S /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper | cut -d":" -f1)
dbus:
  Installed: 1.5.8-1
  Candidate: 1.5.8-1
  Version table:
 *** 1.5.8-1 0
        110 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ experimental/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1.4.16-1 0
        450 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy/main i386 Packages
        400 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ sid/main i386 Packages

On the T520 where I do not see the issue I have 1.4.16-1.

Shall I try whether downgrading fixes the issue?

Thanks,
