Hey guys. First-timer on the forums. Unfortunately, my first post has to be about a problem

In any case, I just did an update to KDE4 and now plasma won't load at all. It crashes and gives me an error. So I decided to run it from Konsole and see what sort of output I get.

serens@PC234:~$ plasma
<unknown program name>(6751)/ checkComposite: Plasma has an argb visual 0x624a60 73400321
<unknown program name>(6751)/ checkComposite: Plasma can use COMPOSITE for effects on 0x61cf80
Plasma crashed, attempting to automatically recover
plasma(6751): Communication problem with "plasma" , it probably crashed.
Error message was: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)" "

serens@PC234:~$ KCrash: crashing... crashRecursionCounter = 2
KCrash: Application Name = plasma path = <unknown> pid = 6752
sock_file=/home/serens/.kde4/socket-PC234/kdeinit4__0
<unknown program name>(6754)/ checkComposite: Plasma has an argb visual 0x624a60 73400321

plasma(6754): Communication problem with "plasma" , it probably crashed.
Error message was: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)" "

And a dialog box says:
A Fatal Error Occurred
The application Plasma Workspace (plasma) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV).
