Description of problem: One of our users runs KDE inside a separate VNC session. nm-applet crashes when run from this configuration, probably as a result of dbus rules blocking messages. VNC session log: (nm-applet:4518): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "nodoka", (nm-applet:4518): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "nodoka", (nm-applet:4518): GLib-WARNING **: GError set over the top of a previous GError or uninitialized memory. This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL before it's set. The overwriting error message was: Connection ":1.77" is not allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerUserSettings" due to security policies in the configuration file /var/log/messages segfault message: Sep 10 23:35:14 kolea dbus: Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.62" (uid=612 pid=4418 comm="kded4 ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" member="Get" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" (uid=0 pid=1601 comm="NetworkManager --pid-file=/var/run/NetworkManager/")) Sep 10 23:35:15 kolea kernel: nm-applet[4518]: segfault at e0308000 ip 00007f17243539d7 sp 00007fffd7831ea0 error 4 in libc-2.10.1.so[7f172430b000+164000] Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.7.1-8.git20090708.fc11.x86_64
