Hi all,
I have installed Debian sarge on a 712 workstation (2.4.22 kernel if I remember correctly). After a recent upgrade, I have found that KDE apps do not work properly. KDE is not essential on such workstation (well not fast at least), but I would like to be able to to test it.
I seems that KDE upgraded to version 3. I suspect the dcopserver is the cause (or a symptom): if I try to start it manually, it get:
~# dcopserver
ICE Connection rejected!
DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed
ICE Connection rejected!
DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed
DCOPServer self-test failed.
~#
I do not know the internal of this system. I have checked that iceauth works:
iceauth> info Authority file: /root/.ICEauthority File new: no File locked: yes Number of entries: 2 Changes honored: yes Changes made: no Current input: (stdin):5 iceauth>
And I also checked permissions on the /tmp directory:
~# ls -la /tmp total 32 drwxrwxrwt 6 root root 4096 2004-01-07 17:48 . drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 2003-11-26 17:19 .. drwx------ 3 root root 4096 2004-01-07 17:41 0518411546 drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 2004-01-07 17:48 .ICE-unix drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 2004-01-07 17:40 .sockets -r--r--r-- 1 root root 11 2004-01-07 17:40 .X0-lock drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 2004-01-07 17:40 .X11-unix -r--r--r-- 1 root root 11 2004-01-07 17:40 .X64-lock ~#
Any hint? Do I have to upgrade to sid?
Thanks
