Hi,
I would just like to point out that the problem is only with kdesudo, and not with sudo.
It is as if kdesudo does not know where to look to check my password. As you have
certainly noticed, my knowledge of informatics is minimal. I get along as long as things
are straightforward and simple. Oneiric TDE is my main system for all my private files and
professional work, so I need it to work...
I did not manage to remove the (non-trinity) kdesudo package because of dependencies, but
i renamed it old_kdesu.
I used the 'usermod' command to add sudo to the groups that belong to user marco.
I checked with the command 'id' : it shows user marco as part of the admin and
sudo groups.
But when asked for my password by a kde application in a Kdesudo window, I still get
bumped after 3 tries with the message 'Wrong password. Exiting'. Any clues?

Ha, I not thought that KDE4 applications could have a version number 3.x.
Yes, it seems to me that the problem is probably elsewhere.
How do you set /etc/sudoers (or /etc/sudoers.d/)? On the test machine I have
my account in the group "sudo", and there to me it works.

I did not set anything in those files. I am the only user (marco) on my linux machine.
The etc/sudoers.d directory contains only the standard README file.
Here are the contents of the /etc/sudoers file :

marco@Blacknight:/etc$ sudo cat sudoers
[sudo] password for marco:
#
# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.

# Please consider adding local content in /etc/sudoers.d/ instead of
# directly modifying this file.

# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.

# Members of the admin group may gain root privileges
%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL

If i need to do something to this file, please be specific.
Thanks again
