Suse 7.1 kernel 2.4.17 kde 2.2.2 XF86 4.2 Small problem. I keep breaking Klauncher forcing me to log out then back in to KDE. For example Kwintv (rpm from suse) asks to be suid root. But causes this. gringo@gringo:~ $kwintv The KDE libraries are not designed to run with suid privileges. gringo@gringo:~ $kdeinit: Fatal IO error: client killed kdeinit: sending SIGHUP to children. KLauncher: Exiting on signal 1 kdeinit: sending SIGTERM to children. kdeinit: Exit. It does not like to be run as User. However it will work with sux -but also breaks klauncher. As user I get kv4lsetup: You should install me suid root, I need root priviliges for the VIDIOCSFBUF ioctl. Warning: kwintv: kv4lsetup had some trouble, trying to continue anyway. Is there a way of restoring klauncher ? If I stop and start klauncer it has no affect. The usual message is "klauncher could not be reached via DCOP" I have a similar problem with kfontinsall Brian Marr
