Anne; When you SU to root from a normal user, you're
essentially still in the normal user's environment and
"calling" the root owned application. KDE would have to
save the profile setting for "root's" konqueror in "anne's"
profile, and it can't or shouldn't be able to do that. Even
using "su -" and changing to the "root" environment will
give you the same results. Sorry!

Someone else might have an idea on how to get around this,
but I think this is "part and parcel" of the Mandrake
"Mentality" ( as I call it ), to prevent normal users from
loggin in as root users. Notice that the user "root" is no
longer showing up on the login menu? That's what I'm
talking about. I don't think it was ever possible to save
these profile settings in a normal users profile or to save
them for the root user. I might be wrong, though. It might
be possible to create a new Konqueror profile and call it
"When I'm SU'd as root user".
