Hello! I placed KDE v3.3.1's KPPP icon on my desktop on my Debian v3.1 box (Kernel 2.6.8). I also configured it to ask for my root password since it requires root to use it. Once I successfully connect to my ISP, I notice my desktop icons and background wallpaper start disappearing to blackness. If I disconnect my dial-up modem connection, then I get "kdeinit could not launch 'kdesu'" error. After hitting the button, then my icons and wallpaper come back. That was odd!
I tried running KPPP in KDE's terminal with su command to run it. I have none of these problems. Why can't I use the desktop icon shortcut with "Run as a different user: username -- root" without these problems? Is it a bug? Please note that I am still considered a newbie with Linux world. Thank you in advance. :) -- "An anthill increases by accumulation. / Medicine is consumed by distribution. / That which is feared lessens by association. / This is the thing to understand." --Siddha Nagarjuna /\___/\ / /\ /\ \ Phillip (Ant) @ http://antfarm.ma.cx and | |o o| | Ant's Quality Foraged Links: http://aqfl.net \ _ / E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] ( ) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
