If allways put a small script in ~/.kde/Autostart like this: ----------------------------- #!/bin/bash kdesu -c konsole ----------------------------- This way, when I login as a regular user, I only login once as root and do everything which requires root priviledges from konsole. It has the advantage that you can open extra terminal sessions (ctrl-alt-n) without having to give your root password over and over again. Alternatively you could make it a link on you desktop.
