[solved] Kpowersave - Can't connect to DBUS

I installed Kpowersave from the AUR.
when I start it as user I get this error:

$ kpowersave 
 22:07:10:537:  kpowersave::kpowersave
 22:07:10:540:  pDaemon::pdaemon
 22:07:10:540:  dbusPowersaveConnection::dbusPowersaveConnection
 22:07:10:540:  dbusPowersaveConnection::initDBUS
 22:07:10:564:  User is not permitted to connect to daemon
 22:07:10:564:  ERROR: Can't connect to DBUS

a added the user to the groups dbus,power and daemon, but I still get the same error.
How can I give the user the permission to connect to DBUS?

starting kpowersave as root works fine, but I want to run it as user...

Re: [solved] Kpowersave - Can't connect to DBUS

did you restart you session?

groups only get updated after a new session is created

Re: [solved] Kpowersave - Can't connect to DBUS

maybe it has something to do with the acpid daemon taking control of the events:

Re: [solved] Kpowersave - Can't connect to DBUS

Today I booted into my arch and it works!
The user don't need to be in groups dbus,daemon,power,hal ...

$ groups
slocate users michael abs

Maybe the daemons (hal,dbus,powersave) or (some of) the init-scripts had to be restarted after installation of kpowersave?? I don't know...

Anyway, the reboot did it.   smile

Re: [solved] Kpowersave - Can't connect to DBUS

hmm, after another reboot I get the same problem  :?

20:28:09:772:  User is not permitted to connect to daemon
20:28:09:772:  ERROR: Can't connect to DBUS

I've made no changes!
Reooting now doesn't solve it...

any ideas?


EDIT:
I hope I solved it now. The user have to be in the "power" group.
I found the info in

etc/dbus-1/system.d/powersave.conf
