Where do you get these errors? Adept/KPackageKit? Do you get them when you are using Konsole/Bash/xterm?

Backup your .bashrc and .profile (move them somewhere) and try opening a new konsole and do the same (which triggered this). – Shiki Jun 5 '10 at 18:56

Have you tried it from ctrl-alt-f1? Use ctrl-alt-f7 to get back to gui or it might be f5. Did you run it as sudo?
