[Bug 330635] Re: Kbibtex hangs and crashes during online search

The option I'm describing is an XFCE settings option, which relates to
the Xubuntu distribution and its lightweight window manager. If you're
not running on Xubuntu, then this option won't be there.

Because it's not committed to Gnome (Ubuntu) or KDE (Kubuntu), it's up
to you whether you launch any Gnome or KDE supporting services when your
Xubuntu session starts. I understood that this was an issue of startup
speed (e.g. if the services are already running, then launching a KDE-
based app would be quicker). However, it seems as if these services
being running could be a requirement for Kbibtex to run without errors.
I guess it's not causing some services to launch which it actually
relies on.

Take a look at this page - the advanced tab in the settings manager is what I'm talking about. 
http://www.xfce.org/documentation/4.2/manuals/xfce4-session

If you can fathom what's behind this GUI pane, then you'll be able to
set it in your environment too. If you want to be sure, you could always
install Kubuntu, but in my experience it's a bit annoying to have two
sets of every application when you've installed the desktops from two
distributions.
