Hello Stuart,

Just for starters, can you (as root) delete the /tmp/.ICE-unix directory and 
anything in it and then simply create the directory again (with root 
ownership). Also, in your usual users home directory, delete anything 
beginning with .DCOP and the file .ICEauthority. As you're starting from new, 
also delete the .kde directory that may have gotten partially created (just 
for the hell of it :-)

Does this make any difference? If not, do you get any different error 
messages from your earlier email or do you just get the same?

Cheers,
Sean
