Problem with KDE, not start D-Bus

Hello. I have problem with login to KDE.
This is the errors:

bash-4.0# cat /home/stibi/.xsession-errors
open(fonts.scale): Too many levels of symbolic links
startkde: Starting up...
EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus daemon
startkde: Could not start D-Bus. Can you call qdbus?

When i login as root, all is ok, but as normal user i can`t login.
Executing "qdbus" return this:

[stibi@hapecko root]$ qdbus
Could not connect to D-Bus server: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: 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.

I really dont know what about this. Please give me a little help. Thanks.

Re: Problem with KDE, not start D-Bus

is dbus or hal in your /etc/rc.conf daemons section? if hal is there and dbus is not that is fine, hal will load dbus, if niether are, that could be your problem.

Re: Problem with KDE, not start D-Bus

You start HAL too early. Switch hal <--> cpufreq, and put syslog-ng first (on the left)

Re: Problem with KDE, not start D-Bus

Also shouldn't have to be in group dbus.

Still no effect.

When login to KDE as root works, is not problem in permissions ?

Re: Problem with KDE, not start D-Bus

is it ok that you dont need to have dbus if you have hal already in your DAEMONS?
usually i thought that dbus should be put before hal, and hal should start later

Re: Problem with KDE, not start D-Bus

Re: Problem with KDE, not start D-Bus

Hmm, let me see.

When I created my user (now my user belongs to more groups, like that for virtualbox), he belonged to these groups:

users,wheel,audio,video,optical,storage,camera,floppy

Are you in these groups ?

Re: Problem with KDE, not start D-Bus

I create another new user and login to KDE correct. So something is wrong with my account.
