Let me paste here the output from the X terminal when I tried to run rhythmbox both as root, and as user 'dd', if it helps someone to understand the problem. Obviously it did not run. Is the SCIM thing the culprit? << [dd@mamdo ~]$ rhythmbox (rhythmbox:6721): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: couldn't connect to session bus: 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.
