You did just "su", not "su -". The difference is that "su -" reruns the
login scripts, etc., so you get the right PATH for root.
timed is in /usr/sbin, which is in the PATH of root, but not the PATH of
normal users.
Either do "su -", or stay with "su" and run /usr/sbin/timed rather than
just timed.
