Running: compiz --replace gconf

Returns:

(process:2314): GLib-WARNING **: In call to g_spawn_sync(), exit status of a child process was requested but SIGCHLD action was set to SIG_IGN and ECHILD was received by waitpid(), so exit status can't be returned. This is a bug in the program calling g_spawn_sync(); either don't request the exit status, or don't set the SIGCHLD action.
GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; the most common cause is a missing or misconfigured D-Bus session bus daemon. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details -  1: Failed to get connection to session: Abnormal program termination spawning command line `dbus-launch --autolaunch=872829da6bf75a6b345783c84c5e0758 --binary-syntax --close-stderr': )

Runs fine when wrapped in dbus, as stated above: dbus-launch compiz
--replace gconf
