hey all: I have a puzzle about start_kdeinit in kde3 ,why does it need setuid root ? where does the root privilege use ? Is it need to write a root user file or need to send a signal to a root process, or the other case ? When I remove the "s" bit at start_kdeinit, it seems runs ok. And why does the start_kdeinit in kde4 needn't setuid root?
