Chris, did you get my private mail?  I explained a bit there.  (I
didn't see this thread until now, sorry.)

In a nutshell, the frontend starts the backend via sudo, and that
might fail when the frontend doesn't run as "user".  When sudo fails,
the frontend goes catatonic (which is a known bug that has been fixed
in Sardine).
