Description Andreas K. Huettel 2010-06-14 23:32:30 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

This is a clone of http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309171

When starting the kdm configuration module via "kdesu systemsettings", downloading a new theme fails with an error message. The related stderr messages can be found at http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=235327&action=view and indicate that a DBUS session bus is required but unavailable. 

When running "su" in a console and then starting systemsettings, everything works fine. 

When running "kdesu kcmshell4 kdm", everything works fine, too...


Reproducible: Always

This is fixed in kde-4.5.2.
