Hi, I’m having issues using cdemu after installing using cdemu PPAs.
I’ve checked and it appears I’m using the latest / correct versions of both cdemu and gcdemu —
kapper@xps:~$ cdemu --version cdemu 3.2.5 - (C) 2006-2022 Rok Mandeljc
gcdemu shows version 3.2.6 using the ‘about’ context menu option.
I was able to use cdemu for maybe a day or so before this started to happen. I found Bug # 1926303 on launchpad is very similar, except that the solution there doesn’t work, as dbus-service-session is not an ubuntu package.
kapper@xps:~$ sudo apt install dbus-service-session [sudo] password for kapper: Reading package lists. Done Building dependency tree Reading state information. Done E: Unable to locate package dbus-service-session kapper@xps:~$ sudo apt search dbus-service-session Sorting. Done Full Text Search. Done
Did a quick google search and I can’t find anything on dbus-service-session , only dbus-user-session , which is already installed with no pending updates.
Here’s the contents of journalctl —user-unit cdemu-daemon across two separate reboots. This is especially odd because I never configured cdemu to start on boot — but it (gcdemu) does start on boot and errors out.

Not really sure where to go from here, any help would be appreciated. Let me know if any further information is needed, I’d be happy to run some commands or tests and provide output.

gnome-terminal fails to start (timed out)
I just upgraded from Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04. My workflow is to connect from Windows using VcXsrv to Ubuntu (ssh with X tunneling), starting a xterm on Ubuntu. Inside the xterm I am typing gnome-terminal to get a gnome-terminal. Since the upgrade this is not working anymore. I am getting
$ gnome-terminal # Couldn't register with accessibility bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. # Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Fehler beim Aufruf von StartServiceByName für org.gnome.Terminal: Zeitüberschreitung wurde erreicht

- sudo gnome-terminal works
- gnome-terminal works when run in a xterm when locally logged in on the PC
- when I am also logged in locally on the PC then gnome-terminal in the remote session’s xterm opens a gnome-terminal on the local session on the PC (still getting the first error line about registering with accessibility bus)
- when I am also logged in over rdp (Windows network connection) then a gnome-terminal in the ssh session opens a gnome-terminal in the xrdp session
- when I login over rdp (Windows network connection), logoff there, then gnome-terminal can open a gnome-terminal
What can I do to get gnome-terminal in a remote session’s xterm to work?

Identical issue, found the solution.
Running ‘tail -f /var/log/syslog’ in a 2nd terminal when testing in the first terminal gives the following when I launch gnome-terminal after ‘sudo bash’:
Mar 23 10:11:59 X399-DESIGNARE-EX dbus-daemon[2584]: [session uid=0 pid=2582] Activating service name='org.gnome.Terminal' requested by ':1.6' (uid=0 pid=2929 comm="/usr/bin/gnome-terminal.real " label="unconfined") Mar 23 10:11:59 X399-DESIGNARE-EX gnome-terminal-[2934]: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-GAXcx1c8OL: Connection refused Mar 23 10:11:59 X399-DESIGNARE-EX dbus-daemon[2584]: [session uid=0 pid=2582] Successfully activated service 'org.gnome.Terminal' Mar 23 10:11:59 X399-DESIGNARE-EX gnome-terminal-[2934]: The owner of /home//.config/ibus/bus is not root!
I get the following when running gnome-terminal as myself:

. after a lot of digging I finally found gnome-terminal not starting, which indicated there is an issue with dbus not refreshing its environment when services get requested from non-root. The following steps work around the problem:
#!/usr/bin/env bash dbus-update-activation-environment —systemd —all gnome-terminal &
