Hi!

I like to use kate for system management file editing... i.e. I su to
root and then open kate that conveniently saves sessions of multiple
files. In 11.3 I get this:

loota:/data1/home> su
Password:
loota:/data1/home # kate &
[1] 4373
loota:/data1/home # kate(4373): Session bus not found

KCrash: Application 'kate' crashing...
sock_file=/root/.kde4/socket-loota/kdeinit4__0
Warning: connect() failed: : No such file or directory
KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.
drkonqi(4374): Session bus not found


[1]+ Exit 253 kate
loota:/data1/home #

And the same happens for kwrite. Both work for the main user though
(when started from the terminal). What should I do? Currently I'm
editing the files in good ol emacs
