xfce problems dbus segfault with nm-applet
I've been having these errors show up recently. I first noticed them after xfce4 took a long time to log out, then at the next startx, it took a long time to paint the screen, and had a Xorg cursor set and window styles instead of the typical xfce styles. I got things back to "normal" by deleting ~/.cache/sessions/* (all but the 'thumbs' subdirectory).
However, these errors below still show up, and my google searches aren't helping me to diagnose them. Any clues / help are appreciated. Startup Errors: Code:
** (nm-applet:4583): CRITICAL **: dbus_set_g_error: assertion 'gerror == NULL || *gerror == NULL' failed When I run nm-applet from a terminal, I get a similar dbus error: Code:
$ nm-applet Code:

Ensure the networkmanager daemon is not set as executable and that you don't have nm-applet set to run at startup and it won't trouble you. You do not need to go into "network connections" in the Xfce menu if you configured your connection using slack's networking daemon.
You're actually trying to execute those .pdf files. Try to execute an actual pdf viewer (e.g. xpdf) or just put them on the desktop. |

nm-applet relates to network manager - you don't need to run it and yes it will produce a dbus error if the networkmanager daemon is not running.
You should be able to disable it from running on startup in the xfce settings. |

Uncheck - done. (I also get the same segfault when trying to run nm-applet, when the networkmanager daemon is not running.) |
