I have Rhythmbox running on my desktop, and I want to be able to control it from remotely via a web interface. I'm having problems accessing it, however, because rhythmbox-client is complaining that the user (www-data) that is trying to access it doesn't a) have as X session running, and b) doesn't have access to my rhythmbox dbus inform...
basically the problem is, that the only way to get all instances of VLC is to search all non-named instances for the org.freedesktop.MediaPlayer identity function and call it. (alternatively I could use the introspection API, but this wouldn't seem to solve my problem) Unfortunately many programs upon having sent a dbus call, simply do ...
Hello! Is there a method to inform a process connected via Dbus that the other process died?I mean could the faulty process inform the other one that he had an abnormal termination. I know that you can check the error type return but i want something else. For exemple consider we have a process waiting for an answer but we kill the other...
THE NEW QUERY: I am trying to make a unified script that initializes a new Ubuntu install to my liking, it must be run under sudo to install packages, but using gconftool-2 to affect gconf setting relies on the dbus session which is not handled properly by the method of simply changing UID in the script alone.

I need to create a dbus object in python with method names that are decided at runtime. The code I've tried is basically this: import dbus import dbus.service from dbus.mainloop.glib import DBusGMainLoop import gobject DBusGMainLoop(set_as_default=True) gobject.threads_init() class greg(dbus.service.Object): def __init__(self...
Hello, I am trying to script the bringing online (or putting offline) an account, looking at purple-url-handler script I see that simple snippet which looks perfect for me : def bring_account_online(account): if not cpurple.PurpleAccountIsConnected(account): # The last argument is meant to be a GList * but the D-Bus bindin...
I need to implement a simple message bus: One process only thus no need do D-Bus. Publish/subscribe to typed events (Could even be QObjects) I was thinking of using QSignalMapper to tag the "named events", then re-emitting from a slot or connecting the publishers signal to the subscriber's signal... Any suggestions thoughts? Or sho...
