Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 408265 ***
In this bug, the resolution is to log in again, because dbus is not running: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366899 From the number of reports, it is fairly common problem, so the fix should be: 1, make sure that dbus is always runs in any user session 2, this deskbar applet gets started after dbus is started 3, check that if dbus is not available, degrade gracefully, not with a big crash message. Am I missed something? BR Zsombor
