AFAICT, dcopserver is only called by KDE and is loaded dynamically, it is not something that needs to be loaded at boottime etc. Every 4th or 5th time, KDE _will_ start, but it takes several failiures to get it "right". I think this is simply a timing issue of a wait()-like function. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
