Comment (by karlcz@…):

 I just encountered this on two up to date CentOS 6.3 + EPEL + RPM Fusion
 machines using the mythtv 0.25 packages from RPM fusion.

 A workaround that seems to work for now is to enable all of dbus,
 mythbackend, and GDM with auto-login as usual (for mythfrontend).  Then in
 rc.local add this hack to get mythbackend started without dbus being
 available before restarting it for the sake of GDM and friends:

 {{{
 service messagebus stop
 service mythbackend stop
 sleep 5
 service mythbackend start
 sleep 5
 service messagebus start
 }}}

 Does anybody know how to tell mythbackend not to use dbus?
