Thanks for your reply. Yes I know that a kde app was trying to run, the
issue was that because the dcopserver was not running it was messing
with the session manager and certain apps could not start. I figured
out that the problem was that the permissions of a file under my home
directory that was related to dcopserver was changed and was causing
major problems. I don't know how this changed but regardless, I just
chowned everything under my home directory back to my user name. Now
everything works fine. Hopefully, this won't cause any other problems
:).
