with kde4.3 console 2.3.1 after a very fresh install on another computer :
going su and starting dolphin: 
<unknown program name>(4393)/: KUniqueApplication: Cannot find the D-Bus
session server:  "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote
application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the
reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."
<unknown program name>(4392)/: KUniqueApplication: Pipe closed unexpectedly.
-> program does not start

going su and starting kfind :
kdeinit4: preparing to launch /usr/lib/libkdeinit4_klauncher.so
kdeinit4: Communication error with launcher. Exiting!
-> program does start but cannot search anything, everytime I hit search the
above error is posted in the konsole.

doing sudo dolphin : 
 unknown program name>(4438)/: KUniqueApplication: Cannot find the D-Bus
session server:  "/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following
error: Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed.
"
<unknown program name>(4436)/: KUniqueApplication: Pipe closed unexpectedly.
-> program does not start
doing sudo kfind : 
kfind: cannot connect to X server
-> program does not start
doing sudo firefox :
Error: no display specified
-> program does not start
