[SOLVED]xfburn fails to open

This is my first time installing xfburn and im getting the following when launching it:

archuser@archws ~ % xfburn                                 <12:19>
** Message: No existing settings file, using default settings
** Message: Using Thunar-VFS 1.1.0

(xfburn:28944): thunar-vfs-WARNING **: Failed to connect to the HAL daemon: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
libhal.c 3479 : LibHalContext *ctx is NULL

I'm not using any desktop environments, but I am using thunar with pekwm. Anyone has any clue what this error means and how to fix it. Thanks.

Re: [SOLVED]xfburn fails to open

Are the hal and dbus daemons started in rc.conf? ( I think hal will automatically start dbus if it is not already started, but I specify both in my rc.conf to be sure)  If they aren't, start them.

Also, how are you launching pekwm?  If you just have exec pekwm in your .xinitrc then you might try changing it to:
exec ck-launch-session pekwm
