Comment 5 for bug 737856

I think I have a similar problem:

a) synaptiks crashes at startup....touchpad is "frozen" for about 30 seconds or so...

b) when I run synaptiks manually in the terminal i get the following:
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
