dbus_bindings.DBusException: Connection ":1.16" is not allowed to add more match rules (increase limits in configuration file if required) This exceptions happens quite fast when you're playing around with hal-device-manager and connecting & disconnecting devices. Everytime you restart hal-device-manager, the connection number increases. Restarting message-bus or haldaemon has no effect. This is with dbus-0.22-4 and hal-0.2.97.cvs20040823-3. I looked around in /etc/dbus-1/*.conf, but i didn't see anything that would limit the number of connections.
I can confirm that the "number of match rules" limit is not configurable like other limits in the system. However, IMHO it's not super high priority to fix it because I'm not sure if we will ship hal-device-manager at all. Reassigning to dbus. Thanks, David
This bug should go upstream.
