[Solved] Cannot start firestarter (because of configuration)

Hello,

I installed firestarter and pacman said:

-->  This version comes with a system init script now. You have to run the
  -->  "firestarter" executable from the command line (in an X driven console)
  -->  first to generate the initial start-up scripts.

Nevertheless, when I execute firestarter (as root and after xhost +) I get a window saying:

A proper configuration for Firestarter was not found. If you are running Firestarter from the directory you built it in, 
run 'make install-data-local' to install a configuration, or simply 'make install' to install the whole program.

Firestarter will now close.

Any help? Thank you in advance.

OK, I got the fix from http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57454

In a shell inside an X environment, make xhost + as local user, become root and run

dbus-launch firestarter
