For a new user it works too, but for the old one - all work except these two. I have searched through dir.s and files that were created for the new user (its home dir. was empty and did remove the appropriate dir.s in the home dir. of the problematic user - did not solve the problem. The dir.s were, IIRC: .dbus .gconf .gconfd Any other dir/file suggestion? >> launching so: >> >> /usr/bin/gksu -u usrname /usr/bin/qbittorrent >> >> or >> >> /usr/bin/gksu -u usrname /usr/bin/chromium >> >> Others seems to run OK.
