Description AE 2010-12-12 13:40:59 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.85) 
OS:                Linux

Sometimes, after X startup, no login window is displayed. DBus is running. Did not happen with KDE 4.5.3; kdm.log says:

Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server
klauncher(21010) kdemain: No DBUS session-bus found. Check if you have started the DBUS server. 
kdeinit4: Communication error with launcher. Exiting!
kdmgreet(21004)/kdecore (K*TimeZone*): KSystemTimeZones: ktimezoned initialize() D-Bus call failed:  "Not connected to D-Bus server" 

Distribution: Gentoo
DBus version: 1.2.44

Reproducible: Sometimes

I just noticed that the kdm.log message is given out also when the login window is displayed and I can log in successfully.

Issue went away with polkit-qt-0.99/polkit-kde-agent-0.99.
