Humpf... sorry for the truncated mail... I just hit the tab key just 
before space, and it send the mail...

so: The question is, why when you start it as a normal user? The 
package depends on lot of things ( well...gnome's bloatwares often 
does... ) , if one of those is not started correctly, it might cause the 
error.
We know that it's not dbus, but IIRC, gconf, keyring, notify, and other 
stuff like that are runnable softwares. Are they started correctly?
