DCopserver problem with KDE3

I have tried that, but it didn't help any. I have a feeling part of the
problem is in the font handling, and part is in the Dcopserver startup.

But there's no dcopserver file in my /etc/profile.d or /etc/init.d, so
I'm kinda lost as to how to start it.

Thanks!

finery but not beauty, a house but not a home, 
medicine but not health, luxuries but not culture, 
sex but not love, and amusements but not happiness.
