kdesudo problem

Re: kdesudo problem

I deleted the config files referred to that programs in /root/.kde/share/apps and /root/.kde/share/config also, logged out and in, but nothing changed.

I've noticed that the Gnome apps don't have such a problem. Gparted and Gufw opened normally through Alt+F2 kdesudo...

New try: I created a new user, and tried to run kdesudo from it.
No success.

The problem must be somewhere in your root configuration - but I can't imagine where...


Does dmesg show anything?

Neither can I!

Attached is the dmesg output.

kdesudo (and sudo) will not work for the new user, unless that new user is in the Admin group

Ok, I did it, and it was able to use sudo, which always worked.
The "No success" I referred was to use kdesudo or gksu to launch KDE graphical apps as root.
