fusion-icons error(solved)

After I install compiz-fusion and compiz-fusion-extra, I run the command fusion-icons
But I get wrong answer, the information is below:

compiz (dbus) - Error: dbus_bus_get error: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't activate plugin 'dbus'

Do I really miss something like "dbus"?
Someone helps me
Thanks()

Do you have DBUS installed?

pacman -Sy dbus
/etc/rc.d/dbus start

should get you going.  Make sure to add dbus to your DAEMONS array in /etc/rc.conf

Sorry, I've already start the dbus, but it doesn't work.
But I wonder, why I have to use root to run funsion-icons? When I use ordinary account to run the funsion-icons, it tells no rights.
What's wrong?

Re: fusion-icons error(solved)

It seems not the dbus's problem, it's the panel's problem.
After the fusion-icon starts, the panel doesn't show the funsion-icon's icon on the panel, so I just make a wrong impression that the fusion-icon does not start. 
Now I use xfce4, it seems OK.
