I have used su during some of my configuration, so I'm familiar with it.
However, it doesn't really answer my question on how to change (and have
them take effect) user permissions for a user, to grant him the SuperUser
access.

Joseph,


Look up the su and kdesu commands.  It's a good idea to set up a
characteristic theme for user root.  Then when you, as a normal user, su
and become root, the windows will come up in those colours to remind
you.
