I am trying to run gnome-terminal on openbox started from terminal (multi-user.target)
with startx command. GNOME applications that relies on DBus can't communicate or fails
to start in the case of gnome-terminal.
Starting gnome-terminal tries to pull gnome-terminal-server but that service fails.
Code:
$ gnome-terminal
# Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error
calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal: Timeout was reached
May 27 13:58:42 rawhide2 systemd[1027]: Starting GNOME Terminal Server...
May 27 13:58:43 rawhide2 gnome-terminal-server[1673]: Unable to init server: Could not
connect: Connection refused
May 27 13:58:43 rawhide2 gnome-terminal-server[1673]: Failed to parse arguments: Cannot
open display:
May 27 13:58:43 rawhide2 systemd[1027]: gnome-terminal-server.service: Main process
exited, code=exited, status=10/n/a
May 27 13:58:43 rawhide2 systemd[1027]: gnome-terminal-server.service: Failed with result
'exit-code'.
May 27 13:58:43 rawhide2 systemd[1027]: Failed to start GNOME Terminal Server.
On the other hand, starting the openbox from GDM works fine for DBus applications so it
must be that environment is not set correctly when starting with xinit. dbus.socket and
dbus.service are running.
I am on Fedora 30.
