The --suicide option appears to be normal: ryu ~ # ps -ef | grep dcop eliddell 3391 1 0 2022 ? 00:00:03 dcopserver [tdeinit] --nosid --suicide Apparently I didn't install the manpage, but https://manpages.org/dcopserver says: --suicide : Tell dcopserver to automatically terminate if no transactions are made within 10 seconds. So it's unlikely that that is the source of your issue. A web search on the text of your full error suggests that the problem is with (t)qt session management. Most straightforward remedy suggested is to issue this at the command line: unset SESSION_MANAGER You may also (judging from other hits) have a broken dbus, iceauth, or some other messaging or auth problem.

This was the first GOOD action to do. Well done, now I am reassured, this processus was not dangerous. Thank you Mister Liddle.
