Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2001 11:12:13 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have searched the archives and found no suitable explanation nor answer for why the DCOPserver will not run for anyone other than root. I have a 4.3 FBSD system that ran fine until the power went out for longer than my battery could support and the system died. When it came back I could not log in to KDE2 as a normal user, while root is fine. I get the "DCOPserver failed to start" error message and KDE2 goes away. In the Linux lists it seems the only suggestion is to recompile Qt, I am not at the machine now, but is this truly the answer?
