Description Jonathon Robison 2008-04-11 20:05:43 UTC 
Running 11.0 in a VirtualBox.  512M memory, 32M video assigned to VirtualBox.

EVERY time I start konsole (as a user), it crashes with Signal 11.

Started from an XTerm, I get:
========================================
jrobiso2@vbox-11a3:~> konsole
<unknown program name>(20074)/: Communication problem with  "konsole" , it probably crashed. 
Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)" " 

KCrash: Application 'konsole' crashing...
sock_file=/home/jrobiso2/.kde4/socket-vbox-11a3/kdeinit4__0
jrobiso2@vbox-11a3:~> 
==================================================

If I "su -" in an xterm and run konsole as root, it works. Here are the contents of that .kde4/socket-vbox-11a3/ directory:

root's .kde4 directory has no socket subdirectory.

Should be already fixed for Beta 1.
