[toolbox-l] Re: kde2 on 43P-140 system (dcopserver failure)

[Marc S. <ma...@au...>]

Probably one system has X11.samples.apps.clients installed and the other
did not.  There had been information in the README.txt file regarding
the required installation of X11.samples.apps.clients (for the iceauth
command, which KDE2 requires), but the README had inadvertently been
overwritten recently and that information was missing.  The dcopserver
message usually is a result of the missing iceauth program.
