[Comment from a bug triager] See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=246404#c3 Regards My kdesu kwrite run as root works fine and that is what I normally use for stuff that needs root privileges or mcedit from a root console but you need to put a block on kwrite starting from a root console if it causes a crash. As for kde#246404 I searched novell bugzilla and didn't find anything to match the reporters complaint. I used to run kde3.0 or somewhere around that version, there was a pretty wallpaper with bombs, as root with SuSE 7.3 out of need. Created attachment 57302 [details]

kwrite (4.6.00 (4.6.0) "release 6") on KDE Platform 4.6.00 (4.6.0) "release 6" using Qt 4.7.1
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
Launching kwrite from cli as root user.
Usually. it should returns a message showing that this process cannot be launched, not a crash
As usual, launching this from "su -" works fine.

This seems to be a little known aspect of the su command.
