Description:

% firefox
Bus error

As you can see firefox doesn't start. D-Bus is already running:

% ps auxww | grep -i dbus
general 17859 0.0 0.0 3348 492 ? S 20:43 0:00 dbus-launch --autolaunch=30ae5a4562515b02b469c7b100003a52 --binary-syntax --close-stderr
general 17860 0.0 0.2 2620 1032 ? Ss 20:43 0:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 5 --print-address 7 --session
dbus 18331 0.0 0.1 2620 736 ? Ss 20:45 0:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system

And it's already part of rc.conf:

% tail -1 /etc/rc.conf
DAEMONS=(hwclock syslog-ng acpid laptop-mode net-profiles netfs ntpd crond sshd autofs gpm clamav dbus alsa mpd xorg-xdm)

I do NOT use any desktop manager, just plain fluxbox.

My bad, /home was full, that was the reason to prevent firefox to start. What a bad error message though, totally missleading.
