Hi I have Fedora 12 and I want to monitor the health condition of my hard disks. I use smartd as a background deamon to keep an eye on it. Is there a way to let gdu-notification-daemon alert me when things go wrong? If so, how can I do this in XFCE? I also want to manually check it myself every now and then with palimpsest. When I type palimpsest, the GUI pops up with everything greyed out. When I use "sudo palimpsest", I also have the GUI greyed out! When login as root and run palimpsest, I get: -------------------- (palimpsest:23714): Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Unable to open a connection to the session bus: 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. (palimpsest:23714): Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Unable to connect to the running instance, aborting. -------------------- Can somebody help me to get this work? Thank you.
