 |
|
Hi,
I wanted to try out kde-workspaces 5 from the kde overlay, but I ran into a problem: After signing in, it informs me that it cannot access /tmp because the permission is denied. The strange thing is, that whenever I sign in, permissions on /tmp change from drwxrwxrwx to drwx------. Even kdm won't work anymore until I change the permissions back. I can't find out what's causing this. I removed kde-workspaces 5 for now, because it collides with kde4, which I'm using as my main desktop. I suppose I should install a backup desktop.
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers,
Malle |

OK, I now installed razorqt so my computer is usable without working KDE. I tried to launch startkde from within razorqt, this is what I got:
| Code: | QCoreApplication::arguments: Please instantiate the QApplication object first
QCoreApplication::arguments: Please instantiate the QApplication object first
QCoreApplication::arguments: Please instantiate the QApplication object first
QCoreApplication::arguments: Please instantiate the QApplication object first
QStandardPaths: wrong ownership on runtime directory /tmp, 0 instead of 1000
QStandardPaths: wrong ownership on runtime directory /tmp, 0 instead of 1000
startkde: Starting up...
2014/05/24 08:42:56 socat[19625] E connect(3, AF=1 "<anon>", 2): Invalid argument
FATAL: The application binary appears to be running setuid, this is a security hole.
kdeinit5: Communication error with launcher. Exiting!
QStandardPaths: wrong ownership on runtime directory /tmp, 0 instead of 1000
kdeinit5_wrapper: Warning: connect(/kdeinit5__0) failed: : No such file or directory
The following installation problem was detected
while trying to start KDE:
Writing to the temp directory (/tmp) failed with
the error 'Permission denied'
KDE is unable to start.
QStandardPaths: wrong ownership on runtime directory /tmp, 0 instead of 1000
Failed to create secure directory (/tmp/pulse): Permission denied |
Permissions of /tmp before and after "startkde":
| Code: | workoft ~ # ls -dn /tmp
drwxrwxrwx 16 0 0 560 May 24 08:41 /tmp
workoft ~ # ls -dn /tmp
drwx------ 16 0 0 560 May 24 08:42 /tmp |
it appears kdeinit5 is causing the problem. The same change of rights to /tmp happens when I launch kdeinit5 as root. But when I start it as a normal user, this is what I get:
| Code: | malte@workoft ~ $ kdeinit5
QStandardPaths: wrong ownership on runtime directory /tmp, 0 instead of 1000
kdeinit5: Aborting. bind() failed: Permission denied
Could not bind to socket '/kdeinit5__0 |
Any ideas would be highly appreciated. |
