[Humberto Hassey]

OK finally I found the solution, the problem was originated by my Nvidia
Card that was trying to use the Powermizer function, I configured it to
be all the time at best perfromance and that solved my problem.

Hope that helps to all of you.

Seems to me that stopping the acpid service does the trick, can anyone
confirm?

[Humberto Hassey]

How exactly do you reset your bios settingis that pressing F2 on
startup???.

Anyway I tried using KDE instead of GNOME,

sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop Result:  Worse! the system
crashed more frecuently.

I might be trying a fresh Debian install.

I do not know what to do.

Any experiences or ideas?

Hi,

I had this problem before...

What I did was reset my bios setting.  I don't know what the value was
before (sorry) nor did I know what the values are now.  But something in the
bios somehow change the way Ubuntu behave and I stop having this problem...

I try this after reading a post send before for this bug.

Good luck.

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[Jay Foster]

I'm now seeing this problem for the first time, also after applying the
latest update to 2.6.32.-25.  I was in the middle of filling out a post
in FireFox when the screen flashed and dumped me back to the login.
Killed all of my open applications.  I can't trust the computer anymore.
Looking at the dates in this thread, it looks like this is a known
problem for years with no fix.  Does this affect other distros?

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[Humberto Hassey]

Today it is happening about every 20 minutes!

I hate it.

I confirm it happened after killing the bonovo activation server.

Using Ubuntu 10.04  
and an alienware m15 x 

and after killing pulseaudio, but somehow every time I kill it it came
back with another pid.

I cannot use a system that crashes every 20 minutes  but love linux
please help!

Hi,

I think this option is helping to solve the problem.

I restored the default setting of my BIOS and I don't have the problem
anymore.  Probably the ACPI setting was disable (I will investigate.  Before
that, I deactivated the acpid and acpi-support.

I solved this problem by disabling ACPI in the BIOS and by deactivating

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[Dragoneye]

After a bit of investigation.  The conclusion  must be that Evolution
and bonobo-activation-server comes to a stalemate of some sorts. Maybe
have something to do with evolution needing bonobo for syncing with
aliens like MS excange and so on, the problem in the protocol (sometimes
no answer).

I do recall having the little calender on the panel up while working
with other programs like open office calc when i suddenly is kicked out
of Xorg, just like taking a CTRL-ALT-BS .

Tank's to "lautriv" in irc channel   #linux for pointing that out to me
:-)

Hope this help solve this bug once and for all.

[Jimmy]

I got this bug too. The X session crashed without warning and I was forced to 
log back in again.
Attaching relevant information.

[Marcelo Farias]

I'm having the exact same problem described by jordilin. Apparently, it
only happens when I'm using Skype. I'm running a fresh 9.10 install.

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[jordilin]

Just got this same problem. I'm using a fresh install of Ubuntu Karmik
9.10.

could not associate with desktop session: Failed to connect to socket
/tmp/dbus-JkQLeZ2Kjq: Connection refused

It then logs me out straight away. I've had that kind of behaviour
several times since I got Karmik. Not sure if that would be related to
the graphics card, an Nvidia,  as I've got karmik in other laptops (with
no Nvidia) and haven't had any problems so far.

Jarvis did you upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 or was it a fresh install?

[David Robert Lewis]

I can confirm same warnng in gnome-sys-log on Karmic 9.10. which may
have to do with problem I am experiencing with an unresponsive nautilus
session. If I change user, problem goes away. Have been unable to fix
the problem by deleting .nautilus folder.

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[hipster]

Hi,

I have this problem since October.  Ubuntu 9.04.  It's really not
comfortable to use a PC that can restart at any moment.  I have the some
description them other.  I'm always in Firefox and there is a lot of
page that use flash, so I don't know if there is a relation there.

I can add that other logs append other stuff in the same time :

Similar problem here, this could be related:

[..] (no further calls to fd 3)

during this, no /tmp/dbus- file is created ...

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[bharath]

 I got this problem solved for me

 I also got into same problem after I upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10 and it
persisted even after I moved to 9.04. While doing checks after the
upgrade I noticed that I was running old kernel 2.6.22.14 that came as
part of my 8.04  install. I retained my old /boot/grub/menu.lst that has
reference to this old kernel. I forgot to change after the upgrades.
When I changed it to the latest 2.6.28.16, I stopped seeing this
problem. Hence for me the root cause is wrong kernel. see if this helps
you all.

[tlue]

...sorry. me again:
I restarted my laptop, started evolution (first time it always asks for a wrong 
password), closed evolution, started evolution again (o.k.), started firefox, 
opened evolution a second time (to see mails in one window and calender in the 
other window) surfed some time, closed firefox, and got a freeze. -> VM-Ware 
seems not to be the cause.
-> ctrl+F1 did not work anymore -> ctrl+alt+backspace -> login again -> start 
evolution -> i received a calender-notification -> probably the problem arises 
when Evolution-calender wants to rise a notification but is not the active 
window or something like that.

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[tlue]

Same problem here on Ubuntu 9.04. I had a lot of open windows.
Especially Evolution Mail and VM-Ware-Workstation. I was switching many
times between VM-Guest and Host and I think Evolution wanted to pop-up a
message at the same time i was switching to the VM-Guest. Eventually
this helps a little bit to find the cause.

[John Center]

I'm having the same problem, usually after running an NX session
remotely to my workstation.  I come in the next day, & my screen saver
is locked.  A hard reset is the only thing that will allow me to get
back in. In messages I see:

bonobo-activation-server (jcenter-31686): could not associate with
desktop session: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-GjZOjel1tD:
Connection refused

I'm running Ubuntu 9.04.

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[pvanderploeg]

Could it be that this problem is connected to using Totem  media player?
I noticed that the X restart occurs when I watch a movie with totem. I
switched to VLC and ran a few movies as a test (while I was away btw)
and the restart did not occur. I also noticed that VLC and Totem seem to
differ in the way they handle sound. In Totem the sound from the speaker
of my laptop is switched off when I plugin the headphones. In VLC I have
to manually switch the speaker off, plugging in the headphone does not
swich off gthe speaker. I mention this because the error message
mentions something about pulseaudio.

[harvest316]

I get the same in /var/log/messages, except it results in a system
freeze.  Ctrl-Alt-F1 to change to console doesnt work.  Only solved by a
hard reset.  Happens several times a week on my Dell Dimension 5100 with
USB KVM.   This is the standard pattern:

Jul  4 09:43:08 dell5100 bonobo-activation-server (...): could not associate 
with desktop session: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-x8SPI7a7nG: 
Connection refused
Jul  4 09:43:15 dell5100 kernel: [98471.116403] nfsd: last server has exited, 
flushing export cache
Jul  4 09:43:15 dell5100 exiting on signal 15
Jul  4 09:44:10 dell5100 syslogd 1.5.0#5ubuntu3: restart.

Sometimes I get this bdl_pos_adj message before:

Jul  1 06:49:23 dell5100 kernel: [  599.843086] hda-intel: IRQ timing 
workaround is activated for card #0. Suggest a bigger bdl_pos_adj.
Jul  1 06:49:25 dell5100 bonobo-activation-server (...): could not associate

Jul  1 06:49:29 dell5100 kernel: [  606.156863] nfsd: last server has exited,

Jul  1 06:49:31 dell5100 exiting on signal 15
Jul  1 06:50:25 dell5100 syslogd 1.5.0#5ubuntu3: restart.

Happens far too often, so it's a real pain.  Would pay to see this
fixed.

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[pvanderploeg]

I have the same problem since July 9. Random system restart. I use a Dell 
Inspiron 1525 laptop. The problem seems to have started after I installed 
Ubuntuone-cient -gnome and de-installed it again because it caused a crash of 
nautilus. Also it seems to be related to the totem-movie-player, because the 
crash happens when I watch a movie on my laptop.
last logmessages are:

Yes, I was incredibly impressed on the job Connoncial/open-source

So it is disappointing to see this as the perceived bar got set pretty
high with Hardy.

I tried the suggestion Michael posed, logging in as one user then
switching to another user while that first user is still logged on.
Doesn't work if you do something like you walk away overnight and come
in the next morning.  In my case, I'll come in the morning, switch from
one computer to my Linux box via hitting a kvm switch button, and I will
see a prompt for the first user's password, but the user session I
switched to is gone.  I thought maybe the first user's screen saver was
screwing things up, but I have disabled the screen saver.

[Bug 293970] Re: bonobo-activation-server : could not associate with desktop session

[Christopher Williams]

I can also confirm this on 8.10.  For me the symptoms are a little
different.  I have my screensaver set to lock my gnome session when
engaged.  I have seen twice now where I have returned to my computer in
the morning, the screensaver is still running just fine, but when I
enter my password to sign back in, the screen briefly flashes and then
my X session is killed and I'm brought back to the gdm sign in to start
a new session.  Very irritating to lose my session every couple of days.

I confirm this bug too (Ubuntu 8.10). Surprisingly this bug does not appear 
when switching to another user in the gnome desktop (assuming you must have 
multiple users created). When switched to the new user THIS user does not have 
the dbus error messages  
Hope it helps to solve the problem

If there is a workaround to fix this I would be very interested in
seeing it posted here.  I experience the same thing with a USB KVM
Switch on 32-bit Ubuntu 8.10.  Thanks!

I also confirm this bug on Intrepid.

Can someone explain to me what this bonobo-activation-server does?

Thnx

This happens to me when I log out.  The screen goes blank, and the
computer stop responding entirely.  ctrl+alt+f1 (etc),
ctrl+alt+backspace... nothing works.  I have to power off my computer
and power back on again.  I always find this message in
/var/log/messages:

[Jorge Moraleda]

This bug is also intermittently triggered by the use of a KVM switch.
Sometimes when switching back to this computer (Up-to-date ubuntu 8.10
64bits) the gnome user session ends after less than a second with the
user being logged out.

I can confirm this bug on Intrepid. A side-effect is that we can't
launch gnome applications with ssh -X anymore

[yositune]

Recommend setting this bug as high! as it makes use of virtual terminals
impossible without interuppting X Gnome sessions..

[yositune]

I will add that leaving the desktop Framebuffer to a virtual terminal
(alt f[1-5] all experience same problem) and then going back to desktop
will leave the desktop in a 'hanged' state that requires killing hte X
server and session.

There are no dbus process files in /tmp so maybe there's a path problem
that needs to be updated with bonobo-activiation-server?

The only thing I found for configuration of the bonobo-activation-server was 
that it looks for (these are catalog files right?) OAF files in 
/usr/lib/bonobo/server
