hi,
In einem Terminal in KDE kann ich zwar mit su root werden, aber ich kann
keine KDE-Programme starten. Beispiel:
PlayMobil:# kwrite
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
kwrite: cannot connect to X server :0
If I understand you correctly, your problem is that root is not
authorised to connect to the X server. The way I work around this (which
might be not the best one) is to create a symlink to
/home/davide/.Xauthority in /root/ (of course, change /home/davide/ to
the path of your home folder), because my machine is single-user; more
complicated situations might require the use of xauth. See man xauth and
man Xsecurity.
wouldn't it be easier to use 'sux' instead (do 'aptitude install sux' to
install it)? i presume you are using kdm or some other login manager -
this is exactly the kind of problems one encounters with all these
[gkx...]dm's. executing graphical applications by root during the
session of normal user works fine for me now.
regards,
