KHTMLPart exits app in custom display manager (kdeinit is not started)

[Daniel Parisien]

Hello all,

you can tell me the correct place to post this message, that would be 
appreciated.

I am coding a display manager that has a KDE greeter app for logging in. Since 
kdeinit is not started when the display manager loads the greeter app, the 
line of code that instantiates KHTMLPart causes the application to exit with 
error code 1. 

It may not be due to kdeinit not being started (which means dcopserver is not 
running), but that's my best guess so far. Does KHTMLPart require DCOP? Does 
anyone know a reason why KHTMLPart would exit? A grep through kdelibs/khtml 
found nothing...

Linux distro: Mandrake 9.0
Qt version: 3.0.5
KDE version: 3.0.3

Thank you,
