I suspect that many distros' default startup scripts for X will start dbus when the window manager is started if it's not already running, too. In Debian (last I looked, they may have been polluted by Ubuntu-isms by now), basically what happens is that when the X server starts, it runs a program (defaulting to xinit still, IIRC), and that program does some stuff and then tries to run /usr/bin/x-session-manager, if that fails it tries to run /usr/bin/x-window-manager, and if that fails it runs an xterm or something like that. It does some other stuff depending on what worked and what didn't. I think dbus probably gets run somewhere in there on Debian. There's too much s**t that barfs, spasms, and dies if dbus isn't available (why?) > and how do you handle display of things like input method and > NetworkManager icons? Icons are just windows as far as the X server is concerned. A button bar is just a very specialized window manager. I don't bother. Erm, on second thought, I do all my input via XEmacs, and I manage my network with ifconfig and route -- maybe those icons don't work without a button bar, I wouldn't know. But the icons I use do.
