Hi, I have this problem too.

In KDE Components > Service Manager, KDED Media Manager is checked to "Use", but isn't running. When I press Start, KDE says "Unable to start service."

Any idea what's going on?

Cheers

Workaround

I dont know if anyone else has solved this problem yet, but i was having this issue also and was stumped for a couple days. after looking at it i found that the libdbus-1.so.2 was missing and there was a libdbus-1.so.3 there instead.

all i did was make a symlink from the libdbus-1.so.3 to the libdbus-1.so.2

ln -s /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so.3 /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so.2

and everything that needed libdbus-1.so.2 magically worked again, this included kde mediamanger, monodevelop, and kde burn base url notifier for me.

hope this helps
