kdesu not working after upgrade from 11.2 to 11.3

English Install/Boot/Login

Hi there!

After I upgraded my suse 11.2 to 11.3 (via zypper dup, all worked well), kdesu is not working anymore.

A “kdesu -c /sbin/yast2” for example will not produce any output in the terminal.

Any ideas?!

Thanks a lot!

it shouldn’t produce any output in the terminal, instead it should
launch the GUI most often known as YaST…

is that what you wanted, or instead did you want the command line
(curses) form of YaST in a GUI terminal?

if so try:


su - root yast

or

su - -c yast

because kdesu is not required to launch a non GUI program from a konsole

but, if you are saying that the following will not work to launch a
root powered kwrite, then you have a problem:


kdesu kwrite
