Here are the unit files I use to start my user Dbus session daemon
/home/gabx/.config/systemd/user/dbus.service ---------------------------------------- [Unit] Description=D-Bus System Message Bus Requires=dbus.socket [Service] ExecStart=/usr/bin/dbus-daemon --session --address=systemd: --nofork --systemd-activation ExecReload=/usr/bin/dbus-send --print-reply --session --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.DBus / org.freedesktop.DBus.ReloadConfig [Install] WantedBy=default.target /home/gabx/.config/systemd/user/dbus.socket ------------------------------------------ [Unit] Description = D-Bus System Message Bus Socket [Socket] ListenStream = %t/dbus/user_bus_socket [Install] WantedBy=dbus.target WantedBy=sockets.target It seems everything is Ok as Dbus is doing its job. gabx@hortensia ➤➤ ~aur % systemctl --user status ● hortensia State: running Jobs: 0 queued Failed: 0 units Since: Sun 2014-11-02 11:58:45 CET; 6h ago CGroup: /user.slice/user-1000.slice/user@1000.service ├─839 /usr/lib/systemd/systemd --user ├─840 (sd-pam) ├─dbus.service │ └─855 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --session --address=systemd: --nofork --systemd-activation Now when I list dbus process, here is the output: 118:dbus 588 1 0 11:58 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system --address=systemd: --nofork --nopidfile --systemd-activation 126:gabx 855 839 0 11:58 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --session --address=systemd: --nofork --systemd-activation 132:dbus 892 461 0 11:58 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system --address=systemd: --nofork --nopidfile --systemd-activation 152:gabx 1485 1 0 11:58 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-launch --autolaunch 77f348a2b3fb429b85a5de751ea9175a --binary-syntax --close-stderr 153:gabx 1486 1 0 11:58 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 5 --print-address 7 --session 155:gabx 1494 1488 0 11:58 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --config-file=/etc/at-spi2/accessibility.conf --nofork --print-address 3 As one can see, I have two similar systemd dbus-daemon processes owned by Dbus : PID 588 & 892. Is it the expected behavior ?
