OK, thanks for that.

Ah, that is something I had not considered.  I started installing
PAM a few months ago.

Unfortunately, I'm behind on everything at the moment and I've just
found something else I had deferred which is now pressing.

If your system has the correct date and time outside of plasma but
is out by the difference between your timezone and UTC when in
plasma, the fix is to change /etc/localtime to a symlink to the
appropriate file in /usr/share/zoneinfo.  That was rejected for the
sysvinit book because it conflicts with a separate /usr.

But if your problem is with kdesu itself I have no idea - I always
use a term to su.
