--- Comment #25 from PK <pieterkristen...@gmail.com> --- 100% remedy: In the files /usr/share/applications/org.kde.PartitionManager.desktop and /usr/share/applications/org.kde.krusader.root-mode.desktop (for Krusader-root, same issue) one or two things have to be changed. In my opinion kdesudo is to blame for the whole thing. That is IN NEON. - replace X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true by X-KDE-SubstituteUID=false that gives you the chance to change the behaviour of kdesudo yourself. And then - in /usr/share/applications/org.kde.PartitionManager.desktop replace Exec=partitionmanager by Exec=kdesudo -c "HOME=$HOME partitionmanager and in - /usr/share/applications/org.kde.krusader.root-mode.desktop replace Exec=krusader" -qwindowtitle %c %u by Exec=kdesudo -c "HOME=$HOME krusader" -qwindowtitle %c %u Easiest is to use sed: sudo sed -i 's/X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true/X-KDE-SubstituteUID=false/' /usr/share/applications/org.kde.PartitionManager.desktop sudo sed -i 's/Exec=partitionmanager/Exec=kdesudo -c "HOME=$HOME partitionmanager"/' /usr/share/applications/org.kde.PartitionManager.desktop sudo sed -i 's/X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true/X-KDE-SubstituteUID=false/' /usr/share/applications/org.kde.krusader.root-mode.desktop sudo sed -i 's/Exec=krusader" -qwindowtitle %c %u/Exec=kdesudo -c "HOME=$HOME krusader" -qwindowtitle %c %u/' /usr/share/applications/org.kde.krusader.root-mode.desktop -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
