Hello together,
 
 i've changen my authentification for pam to pam_usb. This ist an key based authentification, that works as pam modul. 
 See http://www.pamusb.org
 In a shell, everything works fine. But in kde i've always to type in the root password.
 I've read, that the kdesu command just uses pam.
 The following shows up, when i try to start ethereal in kde
 ps -aux
 user 32095 10.7 2.1 24124 11200 pts/3 S+ 14:44 0:00 kdesu ethereal
 user 32099 0.0 1.1 15176 5756 ? S 14:44 0:00 /opt/kde3/bin/kdesud
 root 32101 0.3 0.3 4884 1792 pts/5 Ss+ 14:44 0:00 /bin/su root -c /opt/kde3/bin/kdesu_stub -
 root 32119 0.0 0.0 1332 288 pts/5 S+ 14:44 0:00 /opt/kde3/bin/kdesu_stub
 
 then i tried following
 
 /bin/su root -c /opt/kde3/bin/kdesu_stub -
 
 woks just fine in a shell, but not when i paste it to "alt - F2"
 
 pasted to "alt - F2" i saw for a moment following processroot 
 18060 0.5 0.2 3144 1048 ? S 09:59 0:00 /bin/su root -c /opt/kde3/bin/kdesu_stub -
 but nothing happend
 i tried following
 /bin/su root -c "whoami > /tmp/test.txt" -
 In a shell no prob, but in "alt - F2" nothing happend.
