Yes, it is possible. But it also shows how little is known about dbus in the
audio comunity (lack of documentation/quality of doxumentaion?).
A naive (?) 'man jackd' won't even mention dbus. Want more ridicule?
'man jackdbus' :
No manual entry for jackdbus
See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available.
No X11 -> No DBus
Not true. I have done
dbus-launch screen
and used screen as my text only session manager with success. jack_control
was able to start jackdbus, pulse was able to run and bridge to jack on a
headless system. (it has been a while, I stopped because the system I was
using was too memory strapped) Any of the terminals in the same screen
instance will be able to communicate with any other.
So it is possible. It does mean learning more about your system...
Hmm - did you? You suggest using dbus-launch even so the manpage of that program
explicitly says "To start a D-Bus session within a text-mode session, do not use
dbus-launch"
and point to dbus-run-session ...
