hared memory segment size mismatch

[Pol <linux_milano@yahoo.it>]

Checking my .xsession-errors, i have noticed:


(...)
Xsession: X session started for pol at Wed Aug  3 06:55:04 CEST 2005
xset:  bad font path element (#69), possible causes are:
    Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
    Directory missing fonts.dir
    Incorrect font server address or syntax

kcminit: ERROR: Shared memory segment size mismatch
libhal.c 767 : org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceDoesNotExist raised
"Service "org.freedesktop.Hal" does not exist"


Will you please help me to understand the meaning of the line 
'kcminit:...' ?


thank you
