I could log in fine, but Kontact isn't running (nor xclock). It seems to be "Can't open display" in both. Do I need to add the -X option somewhere? (A while ago I was having trouble with Display and X11 and a kind soul said to try ssh -X foo kontact instead of simply sshing in and then typing kontact. Might that also be the problem now?) I'm able to run top and other non-graphical programs just fine. The exact error is: <unknown program name>(11866)/: KUniqueApplication: Cannot find the D-Bus session server: "dbus-launch failed to autolaunch D-Bus session: Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed. " <unknown program name>(11865)/: KUniqueApplication: Pipe closed unexpectedly. [1]+ Exit 255 kontact I am simply typing "kontact" at the computer-c command line...should I be typing something else? Thanks again for your time helping with this. ____________________________________________ KDE PIM users mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-users
