I just set up my laptop recently, and I'm having trouble getting KDE to work 
for my user account.  It works fine, however, as root.  When I try to startx as 
a user, I get the following error message:

# There was an error setting up inter-process
# communication for KDE. The message returned
# by the system was:
#
# Could not read network connection list.
# /home/daines/.DCOPserver_(none)_:0
#
# Please check that the "dcopserver" program is running!

"daines" is the name of my user account.  I have my suspicions that this 
problem may be related to something else, since I cannot get apache to start, 
either.  The "(none)" is what makes me think this.  I don't have any idea how 
to go about fixing it, though.

I haven't been running GNU/Linux for a couple years now because I haven't owned 
a computer (except the two at work!), so treat me like a relative newbie when 
giving me direction.

Thanx,
msd
