[gentoo-user] KDE 3.5.3 Media Manager DCOP Error

[gentoo-user] KDE 3.5.3 Media Manager DCOP Error

[Jason Weisberger]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 575 bytes --]

List,

Here's a new one.  I ended up hard booting my system without shutting down
first because I spilled beer on my keyboard...... ok, now that you're done
laughing, here's the problem:

localhost jbdubbs # /usr/kde/3.5/bin/kded
FATAL: DCOP communication problem!
Aborted

On session start, KDE show an error:

KDE Media Manager not running!

I guess there's something wrong with dcop, but I can't figure out what to do
about it.  I'm sure that people who keep beer FAR away from keyboards like
smart people would know what to do :)

I have not rebooted but I did logout of KDE and start getting the same
error about the media manager not running when KDE comes back up.  KDE
3.5.3 here.  I have noticed that CDs don't show up as fast when inserted
and the pop-up doesn't come up anymore.  I think I updated kdelibs the
other day.  Did you do the same recently??

At least know I know it is not just me.

emerge dbus with qt3 flag and/or qt4 flag
then reload dbus
that's it

Well I did a

USE="qt3" emerge dbus

and then I did:

localhost jbdubbs # /etc/init.d/dbus restart
 * Stopping Hardware Abstraction Layer daemon ...                         [
ok ]
 * Stopping D-BUS system messagebus ...                                   [

ok ]
localhost jbdubbs # /usr/kde/3.5/bin/kded
FATAL: DCOP communication problem!
Aborted

So problem still exists.

Martins,

My bad, it did work perfect after I restarted KDE and X.  Thanks for all

Well, I added qt and now dbus won't compile.  Did a search and trying a
fix now.  In case someone else is reading this: 

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65504

Trying to fix one thing and find something else broke too, I guess it's
broke.  :-\

OK,  the fix did not do well.  I remerged kdelibs according to someone
else and dbus still gives me this:

OK.  emerged this:

> emerge =x11-libs/qt-3.3.6-r1 -v


then retried dbus with the same error.  I'm officially stumped.  Any
ideas on fixing this or something else that will fix the mediamanager
problem?

Oh, I did do a etc-update, sorry I forgot to try the dispatch thing,
env-update and a source /etc/profile before trying dbus again too.  Just
to make sure.

Thanks

Did you emerge dbus with the "qt3" USEFLAG?

Well, I had qt3 in there but I also stuck qt4 in my USE line as well.  I
guess I only need one instead of both.  Live and learn.  Since qt4 is
newer, should I use it instead of qt3??

Dbus did compile this time.  Now to see if mediamanager will work now.  ;-)

Qt4 won't be used for KDE before KDE4 - and that won't be released before next 
year. So for the time being...

OK.  I logged out, even did a ctrl alt bksp for good measure, then
logged back in, no mediamanager error this time.  I guess it worked. 
All that for a pop up to go away.  < laughs > 

Of course, now when I put in a CD, that thing pops up.  At least it is
not a error though and it really opens up instead of giving me a error
that it is already mounted and such.

I assume I can unmerge qt version 4?

Thanks for the help.  Sorry my rig was such a pest.  It happens.

Dale,

Yeah you won't need QT4 for anything for quite some time.  Nothing that I
know of uses it yet.  Plus the fact that DBus won't compile with that option
leads me to believe that it's just wasting space.  Once you get rid of it,
make sure to do a revdep-rebuild to make sure you didn't accidentally
compile anything against it.

There are some ebuilds, such as the lastfm player, which use qt4. DBus
builds perfectly well here with both qt3 and qt4 use flags set.
