Dow,
I tried your suggestion but I get the same messages. I think you are correct
that there is some relation to the mcop directory.
It turns out, after a call to the SuSE help line, that the solution is to
remove the /tmp/mcop-root directory.
Note that this also fixed a sound server problem that I had, by removing the
/ tmp/mcop-user directory for each user in my system.
I am new to using the Mailing Lists, should I also post this solution to the
list?
Thanks for your help,
