Comment 1 Andre Robatino 2008-12-14 05:56:19 UTC
I find that it runs after "su -", but crashes with the above traceback when either run as an ordinary user, or after "su" (without the dash).  It also crashes when run from the menu (presumably because it starts with ordinary user privileges and/or environment).

Comment 2 Vaclav "sHINOBI" Misek 2008-12-14 11:40:29 UTC
Please provide versions of system-config-services, dbus* packages.

Comment 3 Andre Robatino 2008-12-14 12:09:45 UTC
I see the same exact behavior on two fully updated machines - one 64-bit, one 32-bit.

64-bit:

system-config-services-0.99.28-3.fc10.noarch
dbus-1.2.8-1.fc10.x86_64
dbus-devel-1.2.8-1.fc10.x86_64
dbus-glib-0.76-3.fc10.x86_64
dbus-glib-devel-0.76-3.fc10.x86_64
dbus-libs-1.2.8-1.fc10.i386
dbus-libs-1.2.8-1.fc10.x86_64
dbus-python-0.83.0-3.fc10.x86_64
dbus-x11-1.2.8-1.fc10.x86_64
ndesk-dbus-0.6.1a-2.fc9.x86_64
ndesk-dbus-glib-0.4.1-3.fc9.x86_64
python-slip-dbus-0.1.15-1.fc10.noarch

The version numbers on the 32-bit box are all the same.

Comment 4 Joshua Rosen 2008-12-14 14:28:16 UTC
