I'm very far from being a D-Bus expert, but I suspect that this is almost certainly completely unrelated to the message reported by the OP. On current testing, 'apt-file search org.freedesktop.Accounts' finds a few items (including one 'org.freedesktop.Accounts.xml') in the package 'accountsservice'. The description of that package states that >> The AccountService project provides a set of D-Bus >> interfaces for querying and manipulating user account >> information and an implementation of these interfaces, >> based on the useradd, usermod and userdel commands. and on the basis of that, my guess would be that you don't have this package installed, and something in your reboot process is attempting to query those D-Bus interfaces just in case they're present, but since they aren't, you see these error messages. (It may or may not be possible for another package to provide the same interfaces without providing those filenames; my guess would be that it is, but I don't know how to go about identifying any such package that may be available.) -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
