http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=900095 Bug ID: 900095 Summary: kdesu doesn't accept the root password at all Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Factory Version: 201410* Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace Assignee: kde-maintainers@suse.de Reporter: asn@cryptomilk.org QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Try to open wireshark-qt, it will lunch kdesu and ask for the root password. The problem is that it always tells you that the root password it wrong. Opening a console and calling 'su -' to be root and running wireshark-qt works just fine. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
