I was not aware that Slackware is not using dbus. I wonder how this is
possible as tons of applications interact via dbus. To me it looks
crippled. Anyway, glad you found the solution and raised the issue.
Slackware does
ship with dbus, every other desktop session I've ever ran
set the dbus user session up by default. I'm not quite sure what's going
on differently there.
Sorry I obviously meant systemd. If systemd is not in use, the desktop
should start the user session of dbus via dbus-launch. I guess introducing
systemd it was decided to manage dbus user session via systemd. This is
appropriate decision. It seems TDE should check if systemd is in use and if
not start the session via dbus-launch. And it seems to me it is not only
Slackware, but any distro not using systemd - Debuan comes to my mind.
How is it handled in Devuan? Does someone know?
