.SH NAME
|
|
dbus-monitor \- debug probe to print message bus messages
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.PP
|
|
.B dbus-monitor
|
|
[\-\-system | \-\-session]
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The \fIdbus-monitor\fP command is used to monitor messages going
|
|
through a D-BUS message bus. See
|
|
http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/ for more information about
|
|
the big picture.
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
There are two well-known message buses: the systemwide message bus
|
|
(installed on many systems as the "messagebus" service) and the
|
|
per-user-login-session message bus (started each time a user logs in).
|
|
The \-\-system and \-\-session options direct \fIdbus-monitor\fP to
|
|
monitor the system or session buses respectively. If neither is
|
|
specified, \fIdbus-monitor\fP monitors the session bus.
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
The message bus configuration may keep \fIdbus-monitor\fP from seeing
|
|
all messages, especially if you run the monitor as a non-root user.
|
|
|
|
.SH OPTIONS

|
|
.I "--system"
|
|
Monitor the system message bus.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I "--session"
