No. I rebooted the laptop before I reported the problem. Additional info =============== Last kpowersave upgrade was on Tue, Jan 13 2009 09:13:35 +0100: [UPGRADE] kpowersave 0.7.3-2 -> 0.7.3-3 The dbus upgrade was on Sat, Jan 17 2009 09:19:41 +0100: [UPGRADE] dbus 1.2.1-4 -> 1.2.1-5 [UPGRADE] dbus-x11 1.2.1-4 -> 1.2.1-5 [UPGRADE] libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-4 -> 1.2.1-5 Before the dbus upgrade I've never had these errors. I have three occurrences of the error in auth.log: Jan 18 12:31:40 aragorn dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_return", sender=":1.0" (uid=0 pid=3562 comm="/usr/sbin/hald ") interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination=":1.6" (uid=1000 pid=4998 comm="kpowersave [kdeinit] ")) Jan 19 10:31:43 aragorn dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="error", sender=":1.0" (uid=0 pid=3697 comm="/usr/sbin/hald ") interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error name="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.UnknownError" requested_reply=0 destination=":1.6" (uid=1000 pid=5146 comm="kpowersave [kdeinit] ")) Jan 19 11:47:25 aragorn dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_return", sender=":1.0" (uid=0 pid=3469 comm="/usr/sbin/hald ") interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination=":1.6" (uid=1000 pid=4918 comm="kpowersave [kdeinit] ")) Note that the "type" differs. Looking at my syslog a bit closer I see that: * the first occurrence was shortly *after* resuming from STR: Jan 18 12:31:33 aragorn kernel: Back to C!

The error does not happen on (re)boot [1] or when I dock/undock the notebook (i.e. on power status changes). It seems 100% clear to me that the error must be related to the dbus upgrade. I'm afraid I cannot help you much with why. I'm willing to try to capture the issue using strace if you can tell me which process(es) I should attach to (kpowersave, dbus/hal daemons?) and what events I should log. Cheers, FJP [1] I've done a fair number of reboots yesterday as I was tracing an X.Org bug, and today I upgraded my kernel to 2.6.28.1. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
