Linux Tip: KDE Super User Command
This tip I gleaned from Marko Jung in his recent post about experiences with KDE4. In the past when I have clicked on an application that requires root authority, regardless of how I have sudo setup on my machine, KDE prompts me for the root password.
Tip:
PS: I prefer using sudo instead of su. To configure this behaviour in kdesu you have to add to your ~/.kde4/share/config/kdesurc the following line:
[super-user-command] super-user-command=sudo
Following this tip from Marko’s post that is a nuisance of the past. In my case I am running KDE35 so the hidden folder for me is .kde.
