I tried to edit a text file as root by using the

Nothing more happens.
Answering to my own posting: I realized that the path to the kde-3
executables
is set for a normal user but not for Root. I found the File responsible
for
the "Edit as Root" behaviour, it's
/opt/kde3/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/edit-as-root.desktop
As a work around I changed the line
Exec=kdesu "kwrite" "%U"
into
Exec=kdesu "/opt/kde3/bin/kwrite" "%U"
That's surely not the correct way but as for now it works for me.

Hi Gerhard,
Do you have sudo-kde3 installed? It has /opt/kde3/bin added to the RPATH
(root PATH variable) so that this sort of thing does not happen.
