#44 kuroo crashes when started as root

[Brian Dolbec]

In a su'd terminal, run the command "kuroo" and it crashes.

dol-sen@virt_kde4 ~ $ su
Password:
virt_kde4 dol-sen # kuroo
kuroo(2138): Session bus not found

KCrash: Application 'kuroo' crashing...
sock_file=/root/.kde4/socket-virt_kde4/kdeinit4__0
Warning: connect() failed: : No such file or directory
KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.

It should at least trap the exception and print a message stating to run it as a user and start it with kdesu.

Kuroo won't start anymore if it can't find DBus.

This message will be shown and the application will be closed :
kuroo(8448): KUniqueApplication: Cannot find the D-Bus session server: "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."

kuroo(8447): KUniqueApplication: Pipe closed unexpectedly.

Note that dbus is necessary for file copying and the system tray icon in Kuroo.
