Re: [gentoo-user] konqueror-kedit
I had this kind of problem, if you had the same as me, its not that root can't run any program, its just that when you run as root you can't access the display (Window Manager) and so, can't create a window, and thus, do not open... I really don't know how to solve this, but I used to run a second X on F8 to get this programs running... On 6/23/05, Zac Medico [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Michael W.
