I tried to use KStreamripper in Ubuntu Jaunty and came up with an alert which stated 'dcopserver not running'. I tried a number of Google results none of which worked for me. However looking at all the results it seemed the problem was permissions based so I opened my 'User settings' panel, opened my 'Group Settings', selected my account < username > and ticked the root and username boxes. When I opened Kstreamripper again it was fine. It may be neccessary to reboot but, that worked for me.
Good Luck!

Making yourself normal account a member of root is a horrible idea. I can't stress how bad that is for security.
Try fixing the authorities on the probable culprits instead:
sudo chown yourusername .ICEauthority
At worst, just start kstreamripper itself as root:
sudo kstreamripper
Thanks for the tip point taken and implemented
