Same problem here ... this is puppy 3.00 booted straight off CD, first run
However having saved the session (pup_save + optional files) and rebooted, it works both from command line and from desktop icon

See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue.

It works now
Weird after rebooting puppy 3.0 the second time with a save file Pidgin works great. Too much of a noob to know why.

This D-Bus dependency is a new thing in Slackware 12, and I know nothing about it. I don't like it when another dependency is added that doesn't seem to improve the performance of the application, but it does add another layer of complexity and potential trouble.
I'm having a grumble, probably there were good reasons for having it.

Sorry for bringing up an old thread, but I have this problem with Pidgin in Puppy 3.01 too
I made custom version from Unleashed (a Puplet?), where my default IM is Pidgin. Saving session is not an option, because I want everything to work from Live CD from first bootup.
After using this command: "dbus-uuidgen --ensure" Pidgin launches without problems.
Do I need to add this line to startup scripts (although it must be run only once, after the system installation to hard drive), or is there any other solution to this problem?
Code: Select all
# ./pidgin

My answer to this issue was to set the dbus machine id:
...from here.
Code: Select all
dbus-uuidgen > /var/lib/dbus/machine-id

Yeah, I know..it was more for future reference for myself and others...I envision that being one of those, "Now, how did I do that dbus reset thing again?" scenarios so now at least I've got it posted somewher I can find...ttuuxxx wrote:Well I hope he wasn't holding his breath for 16Months for that answer lolsteve_s wrote:My answer to this issue was to set the dbus machine id:...from here.Code: Select all

or
I have been fiddling with dbus simply because a lot of things seem to need it, or think they need it. The trouble is if dbus is installed without the machine-id file being created puppy crashes on my machines taking the desktop wallpaper, icons and all with it.
The only way to recover is to drop out of X to a terminal and set up the machine-id file as previously mentioned by steve_s.

dbus-uuidgen --ensure
