I had exactly the same problem on my Laptop (Compaq nx8200), the problem were stale dcop sessions. I resolved it as follows:
$ dcop --list-sessions --all-users This lists all sessions, dcop thinks exists, and indicates for every session the user directory and the session file, which has a name of the form .DCOPserver_hostname__1 Look at the session files and you will probably find out by its date, which are outdated. If not, inspect the content, which mentions the socket files in /tmp/.ICE-unix/ . Compare with the actual content of this directory and delete the obsolete session files.
