Hum... this is weird. There is no way to disable the inter-processing 
system: it's started by the kdelibs, Gwenview does not have any DCOP 
code inside. When one doesn't use a KDE session, the dcopserver is 
supposed to start automatically when the first KDE application is started.
- Do you have the possibility to start a KDE session on the machine and 
check if it works correctly?
- You may want to rm the few dcop files in your home dir 
(~/.DCOPserver... something) and try again

Hope this helps
