Benjiman, please post the output of: $ su - run kwrite - $ echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS If it isn't set, there's something fishy about the auto-launch stuff (which I'm not very familiar with, yet ;-) -- 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.

This will clear the environment, including DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS. -- 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.

But there doesn't appear to be a nice way to fix it, so I guess it will have to be a wontfix. The only thing I Could think of was if [ `id --user` -eq 0 ]; then if [ "$USER" != "root" ]; then export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=; fi; fi in /etc/bash.bashrc /etc/default/su appears to only accept new PATH settings. -- 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.

It's nothing new that 'su' differs from 'su -' as the environment will be everything but the same. Anyway, I'll close this as INVALID, please cc: me if you create a new bug regarding this issue as I'm keen on knowing what the right solution is. -- 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.
