https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=216013 Summary: [regression] root software cannot start under users X- window Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: al4321@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de hi all ! if I log in as user, then use konsole, then su (go too root console mode), then I want to start some X software with root priveledges, I use "konqueror . &" for example. Unfortunately it fails with errors. (it worked on SUSE Linux 10.0) Those are the errors: localhost:/home/user/Desktop # konqueror: WARNING: Can't open /root/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/bookmarks.xml KWrited - Listening on Device /dev/pts/2 kbuildsycoca running... Reusing existing ksycoca kio (KService*): WARNING: The desktop entry file /opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/Home.desktop has Type=Link instead of "Application" or "Service" kio (KService*): WARNING: Invalid Service : /opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/Home.desktop kio (KSycoca): ERROR: No database available! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
