Hi,

   I've got v. 1.2.12 on Ubuntu 9.04. The file is in 
'/usr/share/dbus-1/services/' named 'com.alteeve.Tools.service'. Is 
there any docs on what parameters are valid in the newer version of 
.service files? I was checking the other .service files in the directory 
while trying to sort out my issue and I didn't see the 'user=' pragma 
elsewhere.

   Thanks! I'm still stuck though. :)

Madi
