dbus Digest, Vol 157, Issue 5

[deepan muthusamy]

Iam doing an embedded project. My embedded system is having only root user
and it is a headless system.
And I have some applications which has to be started at boot time under
user defined target which I know how to do.
My Application has to connect to session dbus as soon as it started which
is failing to start because session dbus is not available at that time. So
I want to start a session dbus which should be unique for all applications
till I shutdown the system. I have no Idea how to start that session bus.
can anyone help me for this?
