Darryl....if you don't want to further explore this kdesu
thing then say so, ok?
The kdesu executable does not belong in /usr/share/apps. What
you are seeing there is most likely a directory called /kdesu
that normally contains a couple of icons.
Executables belong in /bin or /sbin directories. All of the
user-appropriate /bin directories are automatically included
in each user's $PATH. The normal place for the KDESU
executable is in /usr/bin/ and if it is in there than it will
execute when called by a user. But if the executable is
really in /usr/share/apps it won't execute when called (unless
called with a full path like /usr/share/apps/kdesu).
