I made a bugreport like this one at about same time ( #1304856 ) anyway ,since this one is the original one, I put here some additional info that could be useful for the devs: I logged in TTY1, run qdbus, and I got this output:
"Could not connect to D-Bus server: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Unable to autolaunch a dbus- daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to qt4-x11 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1304805 Title: KDE desktop login failure: "Could not start d-bus.
