Yes, I also have no internet connection - I only tried this once in Dapper and got a whole lot of errors, one of which I think was the above error.

I think I know what is causing this problem: no internet connection or more specific no open port to DNS. If the compu cannot resolve a DNS the problems occur. Can anyone confirm?

Just for the sake of clarity in my case I am not sure if the 'graphical root' is causing this, although I did use: kdesu kate . every know and then. -- The error message: "The process for the system protocol died unexpectedly" triggers many problems, when logged in as graphical root in Kubuntu Dapper https://launchpad.net/bugs/49950 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

I am getting the same message and have similar problems. I didn't have those problems in the beginning, but they started a week ago. Prior to this problem I have worked on my firewall, installed clamav and antivir. I am mentioning it because I don't know what other information to provide and maybe other 'victims' did similar things. Besides the message 'The process for the system protocol died unexpectedly.', most notably Konqueror starts extremely slow (>3 minutes) and I have problem with launching the System Panel. Any help is appreciated! If somebody knows what information would be helpful I will provide it.

Do you still get these same problems even after all of the recent updates to Dapper? Is this present at all in Edgy? ** Changed in: kubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Needs Info -- The error message: "The process for the system protocol died unexpectedly" triggers many problems, when logged in as graphical root in Kubuntu Dapper https://launchpad.net/bugs/49950 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Description changed: It's been one week now since I last installed Kubuntu Dapper. I enabled the root account following the instructions from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo. Then I logged in as graphical root. And then I found these bugs: 1. Just as the splash screen was displaying "Restoring Session", I got this error message: "The process for the system protocol died unexpectedly". If you waited too long before you clicked "OK" on the error window, the splash screen would finish anyway. 2. Then I ran some apps. But interestingly those apps had no window boundaries around them and the title bar was missing in each of them. Hence I couldn't minimize, maximize, resize or drag the window. I terminated each app through the Quit command in the menu bar. But - for those without menu bar such as the System Settings window, there's no way to close the app. In addition, some apps overlapped the + for those without menu bar such as the System Settings window, there's no way to close the app. There was no icon for a running app on the taskbar. In addition, some apps overlapped the panel just like what System Settings, K3b and Kontact did. 3. Konqueror won't run at all. Its loading icon was on the taskbar, then disappeared and then nothing. I tried many times but it just won't run. 4. The keyboard won't work. This is actually the second time I enabled the root account in Kubuntu Dapper in four installs. During the first one, I encountered and reported bugs #48790 and #48793, which were all confirmed. I was still using Gelex as my id then. Anyway can you credit the karma points I earned from confirmed bugs #48790 and #48793 to my new account to get me fired up. Thank you.
