I found out that I have to first set enable-linger for user john using loginctl, or do something else equivalent to that. Perhaps, using a shell script, it is possible replicate a new instance of that xorg stack prior to using kdesu?
Linger is only to get around an (utterly unwarranted) assumption made by the systemd devs that when you log out you automatically want every process you started to be killed. I'm not sure why you are seeing the need for linger. Its lot like you were logging out. Mystifying. su is not exactly the same as sudo. And kdesu does not run the target user's shell profile as best as I can tell. I would suggest you try Carlos's suggestion of "su - username" just to see if it behaves different. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
