Re: [kde] Konsole unable to start xapps as root in Archlinux

Wow. It works, despite its name :)
My konsole's "New Root Shell" now invokes "sux -"
in place of the original "su -" and I'm a happy man.

Thanks for the info, Kevin. I've learned a lot this week.
Thanks to other X-and-su fans, too.

Cheers,
Ryo
