This is a problem that effects not just suse/KDE3, but trinity as well. See the thread: [trinity-users] Trinity won't start after updating Arch Linux which describes the exact same thing. So there is some new version of something that is screwing up dcopserver and it's ability to create ICEauthority. -- David C.

Last message in thread found the problem for TDE, I suspect it is the same for tumbleweed: By: Lucas dos Santos I did some more tests and finally found the culprit: it was libice package! Instead upgrading the system at once, I upgraded package after package, one after one, until I find out which one was causing the problem. When I upgraded libice-1.0.9-2 to libice-1.0.10-1 I couldn't start Trinity. Once I downgraded it back to 1.0.9-2 Trinity worked normally again. For now I will keep the old version of libice in my system. -- David C.

Any suggestions for retrofitting?
NVM, it worked on 32bit where I actually needed it: http://fm.no-ip.com/Share/Linux/libICE6-1.0.9-4.7.i586.rpm https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1142530 filed. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.

Great job Felix! I suspect there is a new change in libice that (un)intentionally breaks the way KDE3 communicates with it. It will probably be a matter of seeing "What changed?" and then either reversing that part that breaks KDE3 of patching whatever part of KDE3 does the ICEauthority auth to work with the new way of doing it. Hopefully your bug will get someone who knows what changed and a quick fix instead of me taking hours to find out how (whatever it is) worked to begin with, and then what changed. What someone knowledgeable about the libice change can fix in 10 minutes would take the rest of us 10 hours to fumble through.... -- David C.
