Hello,

(this is a repeat from my previous report on udev and kde, but as this does not seem to be related to udev, I reposted without the udev stuff).

After I uppgraded rawhide from a couple of weeks ago to rawhide of yesterday. it seems not possible to start kde or gnome as a normal user. Starting kde as root works fine. (note X is running fine. Using failsafe xterm mode keeps X up and running)

startkde: Starting up... DCOP aborting call from 'anonymous-776' to 'kded' startkde: Shutting down... klauncher: Exiting on signal 1 startkde: Running shutdown scripts... startkde: Done.

Starting startkde from the failsafe xterm gives the same error message. I cant find any more info on waht is going wrong. KDE seems to be very silent wheng things go wrong...

I reinstalled the whole kde set, and even went back to kde of FC5test3, but that does not help. Also removing the .kde tree does not help.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

-Marcel
