Description Matti Lindell 2006-06-28 17:37:39 UTC
Please describe the problem:

RB doesn't seem to like when DBUS daemon is stopped

Steps to reproduce:
1. stop/restart dbus service
2. 
3. 


Actual results:
rhythmbox quits/crashes

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
Yes. Exception is when RB is started when DBUS is on stopped state already, restarting dbus has no effect then.

On Ubuntu I can trigger this by doing
sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart
Comment 2 Tom Kirby 2006-08-09 16:15:19 UTC
Confirming that this happens on my (Ubuntu 6.06LTS) machine too.
Comment 3 James "Doc" Livingston 2006-08-10 14:48:02 UTC
I can reproduce this on Dapper but not Edgy, and the backtraces from Dapper are usually inside HAL.

I'm fairly certain this has been fixed with newer versions of DBus/HAL; has anyone seen this with very recent Dbus/HAL?

For me, RB exits when dbus shuts down, rather than crashing.  Not that that's much better.

I just had Rhythmbox _start_ playback when I restarted DBUS but I cannot reproduce the behaviour. It was minimized to the notification area at the time. This was with Rhythmbox 0.9.6 on Ubuntu Edgy.
