                      2: 
                      3: After installing lightweight window managers, I noticed that some gtk applications didn't work ( thunar or nautilus, for example ) because of a dbus problem. Moreover, the gtk applications looked ugly, the icons didn't show up. 
                      4:

                      6: 
                      7: You have to add the following line to /etc/rc.conf 
                      8:     
                      9:     dbus=YES
                     10:     
                     11: 
                     12: Don't forget to put the right dbus file in /etc/rc.d 
                     13:     
                     14:     cp /usr/pkg/share/examples/rc.d/dbus /etc/rc.d/dbus
