it seems I am able to run my qt4 applications(like smplayer and qbit torrent) as root but not as a regular user
for qbittorrent:
root:
Qt: Session management error: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported
Couldn't set environment variable...
Peer ID: -qB2970-
HTTP user agent is qBittorrent v2.9.7

regular:
Segmentation fault

smplayer:
root:
Qt: Session management error: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported
This is SMPlayer v. 0.8.1 running on Linux

regular:
This is SMPlayer v. 0.8.1 running on Linux
Segmentation fault


any ideas?

fixed by emerging libSM, libICE and qt-core, then re-emerging the app

What kind of environment are you running these in? How do you start up your X session?

let's see I'm using Gnome(not sure which version), my x session is started automatically as I boot
here's my uname -a in case that's helpful:
Linux dhcppc0 3.5.7-gentoo #6 SMP Wed Nov 14 05:50:25 Local time zone must be set--see zic x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T6400 @ 2.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
