Dbus Preset help

Hi Community,
Does anyone know how to fix the preset on manjaro?

loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/dbus-broker.service; enabled; preset: disabled)

Hi @BacanaanacaB,

The preset: value in systemd, as shown here, isn’t something for the user to change, as far as I know.

From https://askubuntu.com/a/1482946 :

systemd presets determine if a service should be enabled or disabled by default when it is installed. Unless you are making your own distro, there is not much of a reason to change the presets.

You don’t change presets, they’re the default values.

You can enable it, which you’ve already done, though I don’t think it’s required. Mine is still disabled but it’s active because it was started by the socket.

Why do you think it needs “fixing”?

There is nothing to fix…

I wanted to understand why the preset is disabled? And what does it mean if it is disabled or enabled?

They are the values a unit has by default when it’s shipped with the distribution. So if a unit comes with your distribution, enabled by default, it would be enabled. But if it’s not enabled by default, it’s disabled.
