Subject:   kde fails to start
Message-ID:  <20020115045024.5be3536f.erichey2@attbi.com>

kde does not usually shutdown completely and, as a result, frequently fails to start (dcop server unable to establish communications).  I start kde from my normal user with 'startx'.  Most of the time I do not get a command prompt back after kde termination and have to 'ctrl-c'.

When the 'startx' fails, I have to su -, cd to /tmp and delete everything kded related that I can find.  The really critical piece seems to be 'rm -r .ICE-unix'.

I'm using the version of kde installed fro the 4.4 install CD.

Any ideas?
