Terminal quéixase de que Non foi posible iniciar terminal server: Non foi posible conectarse ao daemon de mensaxes de D-BUS, que podo facer?

Terminal tries to reduce the number of running instances by establishing a D-BUS service that handles all terminal windows. The message above tells you that Terminal wasn't able to connect to the D-BUS session message daemon and register a service. This is just a warning, you can use the terminal without the D-BUS service feature as well.

To start the D-BUS session message daemon when you login to your X session, either modify your xinitrc file and change the line xfce4-session to dbus-launch xfce4-session or use dbus-launch startxfce4 to start Xfce instead. If you don't use Xfce, please look at the documentation of your desktop environment on how to enable the D-BUS session daemon.
