DCOPServer

[Dave Andruczyk]

The DCOP server is part of KDE used for inter-process communication among other
things..  

Do you have your network started? (run ifconfig to see if lo and eth0 are
configured,  at least lo needs to be configured for X11 to run)

What distribution is this? (redhat, mandrake, gentoo, debian, other..)
