Well, I deleted them all, logged out of KDE and back in.  I still get

Again, I am using Konsole for this.  This may be a KDE thing.  I know
it worked fine in KDE3 but then again, a LOT of things worked fine in
KDE3.
Are you using su, sudo or sux?


I am using none of the above. I say "I" because the menu system for KDE may be using one of those. The KDE menu thingy has a entry that says Konsole. I edited the settings for it to run as root. When I click on the entry for it to run, a window pops up and asks for the root password. When I enter it, konsole opens as root.

Now that I think about it, it used to open a Konsole window,ask for the password and go to a root prompt. That was in KDE3. No pop up window in KDE3. KDE4 has a little pop up window THEN the Konsole opens up as root.

That is different so maybe I need to set something different for it to start up and be able to connect to the GUI. I unmerged KDE3 so I can't go look and see how it was set up.
