I have added the 'Terminal Sessions' applet to my panel, mainly because I find 'mc' is still the most efficient file manager for my liking. All the options work except one. The Root Midnight Commander option just falls over with no obvious error message. All the other options work fine; standard konsole, standard mc and even the root shell all work as expected.
When choosing root mc though, it asks for the password (the same as root shell does) but then just disappears when the password is entered.
If this were an application, I would look at the icon properties to see the actual command being given and then run that at a standard konsole to see what error message shows up. But, this is an applet not an application, so I don't know how to even find out what is causing the problem.
I would appreciate any guidance as to where I start to track down and/or solve this problem.
