    Sudenly Gnome nor Kde won't start

    SUSE 10.0 (Dual boot Vista and Suse)
    No problem with booting.
    It worked fine for months.

    After an update, before Gnome menu starts, a little window apears with the message:

    "The last session was less then 10 seconds... etc." And I can read the ~/.Xsession.errors file which says:

    " etc/X11/xim - checking wether an input method should be started
    INPUT_METHOD is not set or empty (no user selected)
    Trying to start a default input method for the locale ro.RO.utf-8
    There is no default input method for the current...

    /usr/X11R6/bin/gnome line 208: /usr/bin/dbus-launch permission denied

    /usr/X11R6/bin/gnome line 208: /usr/bin/dbus-launch cannot execute permission denied
    "

    Please, what can I do ? I configured Local Apache server to work with MySql and Perl and suddenly my work is interrupted.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled
    from the SUSE DVD 10.0 KDE, Gnome and Minimal graphical enviroment but no improvement.
    I have online re-updated the system but still the same problem.
    Please help !
    Thank you in advance !

    Rename the .gnome and .gnome2 directories. Note the leading period these are hidden files

    I have done so but still the same problem.

    Startx as user:
    Could not init font path /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/font/local
    /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/font/CID
    /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/font/japanese

    then it stops and the X pointer apeares.
