Open a terminal and type

dmesg |less

Scroll down looking for messages regarding your disk.

I don't think it's a bug in dbus, I think you've got a corrupt drive.
The messages from dmesg should tell you enough to determine if you need to reinstall and restore your data from backup.

Can you help with this problem?
