KDE 4/6/5: kdm crash - can't connect to DBUS

Hi,
I'm on a fully updated Arch_64/KDE 4.6.5. (Xorg server v 1.10.2).
Ever since the last upgrade, I get system crashes. kdm.log shows failure to connect with DBUS.
However, DBUS starts (or should start) at boot- it's the second entry in the DAEMONS line in rc.conf.

Please advise

Thanks

I had the same problem when I accidentally deleted second bracket in /etc/rc.conf

DAEMONS=( . . . )

You could test if you have dbus running

  rc.d list | grep dbus 

If not just run

  rc.d start dbus
