Hi everybody

When I try to send a notification as a user that is not "user" or "root" using the command:
Code:
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications.SystemNoteDialog string:"QUESTION?" uint32:0 string:"OK"
i get the following message:
Code:
Failed to open connection to "session" message bus: (null)
Is there a way to get around this?
I have tried adding dbus-send for the user to the sudoers-file but no avail

It still doesn't work :/
I've created a user called fredrik and I'm running the command from this users shell, colud it be that only the default user and root has access to the dbus?

It does work for me, for user root.
How did you add the user?

It works for the users root and user but not for the user fredrik. I added the user fredrik by running:
Code:
useradd -m fredrik
