41 Try uninstalling a a11y related software, disable the accessibility use
42 flag... at-spi2 launches its own dbus - it should go away if you
43 disable a11y features. Opera triggers starting these through dbus, and
44 they will try to bind to Gnome or KDE sessions.
45
46 I have these, too, in my systems because some packages unconditionally
47 pull in a11y features although I disabled all related useflags.
