I have googled heaps but cannot seem to nail this one.
At present I get :
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ dcop
ERROR: Couldn't attach to DCOP server!
This is a result of having to reboot several times after a normal
shutdown for the weekend but which resulted in:
" KLauncher could not be reached via DCOP"
In an attempt to resolve this having finally got KDE apps talking
to me at least, I decided to fix this before trying for another
reboot.
I'm running:
kernel 2.6.16.11
Mandriva10.2
KDE 3.3.2 as initially installed with OS
I've not updated things KDE nor have I recently installed any
'control' type programs so have no idea as to why I am having this
problem across a shutdown ~ restart.
Any ideas ~ pointers anyone ?
Ideally, I would care to fix this so that the startup scripts work
correctly.
I'll not be shutting this system down until I get there, so if you
require any info just give me the correct command and I will post
back the info.
can you log in as another user?
Possible and I suspect that doing so will give me a clean start ~
but that will not fix what is wrong here. Unless you need some log
file produced for clarification ?
I am just giving you a test to see if the problem is a .kde file in
the users /home or if the problem is a system wide config error...
if it is just one user, try deleting the .dcop server file in
/home/user & login as that user, a new one should be built.

Now I've upset things :
I "Ended Session" and signed in as a different user ~ no problems and
the command ' dcop ' produced the result expected when dcop is running.
I then ended that session and signed back in as myself and at present
everything is fine ~ that is 'dcop' is doing it's thing.
Go figure ?????
