Description Eaden McKee 2003-02-03 15:56:31 UTC

Version:           3.1.0 (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.2 same problem happens on a gcc 2.9.5 compiled version
OS:          Linux

When using "file manager - super user mode"  from the K menu, 
It loads up konqueror, loads the root's home directory, and as soon as its loaded it dissapears. I'm not sure if it's crashed or not ( bug dialog can't connect to x server? )

Same thing happends on both Debian Woody debs, and a kde I built on Debian Sid using konstruct.

I have the same problem on SUSE 8.1 with the pre-compiled binaries. 
It seems to be a mcop-problem. 
 
kdesu -t konqueror 
 
  kdecore (KLocale): 
  WARNING: found no definition of PluralForm for de 
  _IceTrans 
  Open: Unable to Parse address none 
  Session management error: Could not open network socket 
   
  /tmp/mcop-myusername is not owned by user

same thing here on SuSe 8.1, if you sux - (password) to root then launch
konqueror it will work, it leaves an error message on the terminal "mcop
warning: user defined signal handler found for SIG_PIPE, overiding", but at
least it stays open. if you su to root,cd to the /opt/kde3/bin directory,and
launch konqueror,it crashes, the same as if it was launched from the k-menu. the
crash leaves the same error as above with the edition of "/tmp/mcop-<username>
is not owned by user.

same here on suse 8.0 with suse rpm packages.
