Hi, my kde4 is up to date and now I cannot get any programs that run as root to start from the menu. The kde4 run command doesn't prompt for root password nor does any menu item that is supposed to run as root i.e. yast2. The only way I can get yast2 for example, to start is in kde3 from the run command after entering the root password. I can't get yast2 sw_single to start in kde4 konsole after issuing the su command it just hangs but zypper works. Kde3s konsole works as expected and both yast2 and yast2 sw_single work as expected. sudo /sbin/yast2 starts the ncurses version in a user konsole in kde3, I haven't tried sudo in kde4. Any clues as to what package could have caused this? Regards Dave P
More info on my problem, in kde4, I managed to get the password prompt in the run command by entering the full path /sbin/yast2 and then entered the root password but I only had yast2 control center without root privileges. Regards Dave P
Yast2 software management will not run from kde4 at all. Yast2 control center starts from a root konsole but I can't start software management from control center either. The log hangs at:- 2009-06-09 15:36:27 <1> Arbuthnot(4317) [ui] YUI.cc(YUI):62 Creating UI with threads Any ideas what to file a bug report against? Yast2 software management runs under kde3.
