When dolphin is started in super user mode, it not possible to launch kate or kwrite. When a text file is highlighted and with a right click kate / kwrite is selected (as editor), there is no response. Leafpad and gedit work fine.
In a console, "sudo kate" does not work. There is a message SUDO_EDITOR=kate sudoedit <file>".
This is annoying as I like to use kate / kwrite to edit files as root when necessary. Is there a work around?

Another way you can accomplish the same that resolves much of the issues discussed regarding launching super dolphin while also the niceties of having the user configured kate running is to access your own system using a kio wrapper. For example fish or sftp: sftp://root@0.0.0.0 and any files opened will launch in a non-root kate while still writing to root files.
Start Yast and run "update unconditionally" for kate and kwrite. Also add the kcm-servicemenu from the Extra repository. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
