Summary: xdg-su falls back to xterm without need
Product: openSUSE 10.3
Version: Final
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Other
AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@xxxxxxx

When called outside a gnome or kde session xdg-su falls back to a dead ugly
xterm that only says "Password:". IMHO xdg-su should be changed to just try
kdesu or gnomesu before falling back to that. Both programs don't need a full
session to work and are much more user friendly.
