Comment 12 Oliver Henshaw 2013-03-01 16:39:37 UTC
Either the UPower dbus interface doesn't exist or the EnumerateDevices call fails (times out?) I don't think it's the dbus interface because the upower backend shouldn't get loaded if the upower interface doesn't exist.

Can you tell me the result of "dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=org.freedesktop.UPower /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.EnumerateDevices" and roughly how long it takes to return?
Comment 13 Christian Boltz 2013-03-01 17:55:05 UTC
It indeed looks like a timeout: (tested on openSUSE Factory)

# time dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=org.freedesktop.UPower /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.EnumerateDevices
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: 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.

Patch to avoid crash

Can you try this patch? This should avoid the crash but won't prevent the slow login.

So could you also file a bug with opensuse or upstream upower about the timeout from the EnumerateDevices call and link to it here? That way we can get to the bottom of what's up with upower.
Comment 16 Christian Boltz 2013-03-05 23:08:54 UTC
I created test packages with the patch added:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=kdebase4-workspace&project=home%3Acboltz%3Abranches%3AKDE%3ADistro%3AFactory
and will report back if they fix the crash.

I also opened a bugreport for upower:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=807616
Comment 17 Oliver Henshaw 2013-03-06 12:49:50 UTC
According to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=807616#c2 upowerd isn't starting. So powerdevil should be bailing out earlier and not trying to use the upower backend.
Comment 18 Christian Boltz 2013-03-07 22:14:09 UTC
I didn't see a crash dialog since I installed the patched package, which means your patch probably works.

Some minutes ago I updated to latest openSUSE Factory which fixed the problem with policykit and upowerd, which means I'm no longer available as tester ;-)
Comment 19 Oliver Henshaw 2013-04-03 19:24:27 UTC
Best to try and fix this so that powerdevil will check that the upower dbus service get started properly.
