kdesudo question

[jackmgerm]

I had been running the Gnome front end on Ubuntu 7.1 until the system kept losing the system tool bar. I installed the KDE front end and now have shat appears to be Kubuntu running. When I boot up, I get an error message saying that KDESUDO does not have an argument included so the program will shut down. What is KDESUDO and why does it want to run at start up? Do I need it? How do I resolve the error message?

Thanks.

How did you do this? The recommended procedure is to install the meta-package "kubuntu-desktop", which pulls in all of the Kubuntu/KDE bits.

That's what I did. I installed the meta package. I will check out the link you provided. Thank you.

Re: kdesudo question

Now that I have checked out the detailed explanation, I conclude that I do not want to grant unbridled root access. How do I turn off the error message when the system first loads the desktop? What is causing that command to run to begin with? It never existed under the Gnome front end that installed with Ubuntu.

Thanks.
