Trying to run mate-power-manager without the rest of the mate environment, I get: - Error in dbus - GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Permission denied /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so.0(g_type_create_instance+0x1f9) [0x7fea0d842b29] /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so.0(g_object_newv+0x27d) [0x7fea0d82866d] /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so.0(g_object_new+0x104) [0x7fea0d828e04]

Can you be more specific on the system setup you are running?

Greets,
Mike

I have been using mate-power-manager in i3 for a while now (starting with that before it even entered Debian). I ran wheezy-backports i3 + wheezy-backports mate-power-manager for nearly a year now and could not see any issue like the above. Since 2 days my notebook is on jessie and systemd, but in i3 I can still launch mate-power-manager and use it for power management.
