Yeah, I believe that you're right, but I'd like to know why this happened.  My 
kded was there - I can see "kded [kdeinit] --new-startup" using "ps axw" -  
but why kde complained that unable to contact with it?  Does anyone have the 
same experience?  Or anyone knows what happened and how to deal with it?

Anyway, thanks for your reply!

Frank
