A recent update seems to have botched KDE somehow. When I log in I
get
an xmessage stating "Could not start ksmserver. Check your
installation."
If I click OK the window manager dies, but if I just let it sit there
I can use my desktop just fine...
This started showing today, apparently after last nights updates.

After googling the issue I found a suggestion saying that I should
check the perms on my . files in $HOME. Everything seems OK here.
Some additional info: If I try to run ksmserver manually from a shell
I get this:
Could not register with D-BUS. Aborting.
I have dbus-1.2.4-2.fc10.i386
