Are you using a display > manager (GDM, KDM, WDM, XDM, etc.), or running startx/startkde/etc. at I don't use a display manager.. I login at the prompt and then use startx.. when I start KDE, it shows me the splash screen and hangs at the "initializing system services" stage... when I look at the .xsession-errors this is what it has:
DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Could not open network socket DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Could not open network socket DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Could not open network socket DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Could not open network socket DCOPServer up and running. The funny thing is that when I start kde as root, everything works fine.. so some permission somewhere is not right I guess.. please let me know if you have any suggestions... Thanks, nirmal
