Actually, there are few ways. One, is to open a text session, and using the sux command, become route.

You will get this error: "cannot connect to X server linux.site:0.0" There are various reasons for this, one of them being security.
Use the command kdesu [program that you wish to run].
An example:
bmo@linux:~> kdesu konsole &<enter>
This will open a new konsole window with a root prompt.
Dear Daniel, Thank you very much for this "kdesu program name & <enter>" It does what sux and quite a few other suggestions I have seen do not do in Suse. sux - seems to work in other distros but not in Suse. I've been looking for a fix for quite a while. Gustav Degreef.
