[Mageia-dev] DBus and automount problem with KDE

I need some help debuging a problem with automount and DBus in KDE. For 
example, a USB key is recognized in the log files, but won't mount or show 
in Dolphin.  

All was fine till a few days ago.  Gnome works as expected.  I suspect it's 
related to another problem I'm having with DBus.  Here are some symptoms:

]$ dbus-monitor --system
Failed to open connection to system bus: The maximum number of active 
connections for UID 502 has been reached

When I go in to the "Actions Policy" in the KDE System Settings, it comes up 
empty under KDE.  In Gnome, it is filled in with the policy settings.

tail -f /var/log/messages when pluggin in a USB key:
