Hello
I'm new with arch and I've just setup my system and it's coming along very well.
I got some problems though, that me and google just can't figure out.
I use compiz as standalone ontop of xserver. Which seems to work very well. Now, i've followed the guide here in the wiki about how to setup the compix + xserver, so in my .xinitrc file i have this:
exec /usr/bin/ck-launch-session /home/username/scripts/start-fusion.sh
So when I start the xserver using:
startx
this runs in the start-fusion.sh:
!/bin/sh
cd /home/username/
#
eval 'dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session'
#
/usr/bin/X :0.0 -br -audit 0 -nolisten tcp vt7 &
#
export DISPLAY=:0.0
#
sleep 1
#
compiz-manager decoration move resize > /tmp/compiz.log 2>&11 &
# add more apps here
tint2 &
parcellite &
wicd-client &
obmixer &
gnome-do &
fusion-icon -f
And when my xserver is up i cannot initiate gnome-do.
when i run:
pgrep gnome-do
I see that it is running. if I kill the gnome-do process and start gnome-do: gnome-do &
I get this:
[Error 09:48:34.455] [SystemService] Could not initialize dbus: Unable to open the session message bus.
I googled that error alot and found that if you write:
dbus-launch gnome-do &
It actually works.
When i put that line in my start-fusion.sh file its the same problem as before, its running but i can't initiate it.
So how in the world should i get gnome-do to start on startx startup?
Best Regards,
Marc

Found this on a mailing list archive
in your start-fusion.sh,
change: eval 'dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session'
to: eval `dbus-launch --auto-syntax --exit-with-session`
Also the ' should be ` or so i have read, it may work with only this change, never run compiz as a standalone myself

Anyone else have any suggestion? I'd really like to start gnome-do on startx startup. Is there any other way i can do it?
