First ...sorry for the email mix up. My fault.

From a terminal as user : No reply
From a terminal as root :
____________________________________________________________
[tony@localhost ~]$ su
Password:
[root@localhost tony]# kmix
unnamed app(2979): KUniqueApplication: Cannot find the D-Bus session server:  "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."

unnamed app(2978): KUniqueApplication: Pipe closed unexpectedly.

[root@localhost tony]# 
____________________________________________________________-

Additional info:
On my 32bit hardware box in pclinuxos, kmix works fine.
on my 32bit hardware box in Mageia2 (two ) Kmix also gives an error.

On my 64bit hardware box in pclinuxos , both 32bit os and 64bit os, kmix works fine
On same hardware box, install of DVD 3.7Gb, kmix gives the error
On same hardware box , install from 1.1GB DVD, kmix gives the error

If you want hardware specs, I can send you output-file of <lshw> as root.
If you want any other info, ask

I have the time, you have the know-how

Did you check in your systray that kmix is not already running because kmix won't launch twice.
