Description geoff 2009-02-21 06:10:53 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

When right-clicking on a text file in File Manager - Super User Mode, selecting 'Open With > KWrite' produces an error dialog:

'Sorry Dolphin'
'KDEInit could not launch '/usr/bin/kwrite'.'

Performing the same action in Dolphin as a normal user works OK. (Tried with /etc/networks in both applications).

Listing for /usr/bin/kwrite:
# ll /usr/bin/kwrite
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6416 Nov 25 04:37 /usr/bin/kwrite

File Manager - Super User Mode was started through the (classic style) menu Start > System > File Manager > File Manager - Super User Mode.

Same problem in KDE 4.3.4 openSUSE 11.2 32bit.

Status=unconfirmed. Why? Nobody picked that bug?

This has been reported again. The newer report has more duplicates and votes, so I'll close this report.
