(solved) Kdesudo dolphin not working in 4.4

Re: Kdesudo dolphin not working in 4.4

The fact that this issue doesn't affect all machines suggests it might be a config issue (for the root user)...you could try backing up your root's kde folder to see if it fixes the issue:

sudo mv /root/.kde /root/.kde_bak

I installed servicemenu-rootactions and it did not work.

Tried your suggestion. No change.

Re: Kdesudo dolphin not working in 4.4

I copied the info in the terminal as it opens dolphin using kdesudo.

Re: Kdesudo dolphin not working in 4.4

that seams to be a global kde 4.4 issue...

Check that link - a 'fix' was identified, tested, and works. One affected python file. Edit it as root, make a single change to one line. After the change, User Management under System Settings now works.

Re: Kdesudo dolphin not working in 4.4

The fact that this issue doesn't affect all machines suggests it might be a config issue (for the root user)...you could try backing up your root's kde folder to see if it fixes the issue:

sudo mv /root/.kde /root/.kde_bak

do you think this might have something to do with it. This is my user management consol.

on my box I have full user managment ....................but kdesudo is still broken ....or some part tharein.....or a dbus usue?

yes this fix solved both my problems. I did go into user management and gave myself sudo privileges which was un ticked. Not sure if that was necessary but I am using kdesudo now as well.

go into your user and give yourself sudo privileges.

Go back in and uncheck that. You don't need to be a member of that group. In fact, adding yourself to sudo (or root for that matter) will likely put your system at risk from your self.

Re: (solved) Kdesudo dolphin not working in 4.4

okay thanks. I did that kdesudo is still working. I'm not sure how cause all I did was use the user management fix and kdesudo was fixed as well.
