.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
.TP
.I "--system"
Monitor the system message bus.
.TP
.I "--session"
Monitor the session message bus. (This is the default.)
