Might quite likely be related to the broken pid file permissions reported in Bug 153009. # /etc/init.d/klive start * Starting KLive ...

Created attachment 106462 [details, diff] init script patch - works for me w/ 1.13.0_alpha11; someone test w/ 1.12 before committing... ;)
Sorry that I'm doing a bad job with maintenance of this package, due to being too busy with other things. As such I've slated it to be removed: http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_144369.xml
Thanks, fixed in CVS.
