Binary install of 3.5.13.2 on Xubuntu Lucid 10.04
I'm having a problem writing to files with konquerorsu. It is started with
(kdesudo -c 'konqueror --profile filemanagement') then requests password,
then opens ok.
I can create directories ok in the filesystem so it's obviously running as
root, but I cannot save edited files, with kate, kwrite, and xfce's
mousepad complaining about a permissions issue.
I have no problems with konquerorsu on other distros by the way.
I also started xfce's thunar from a shell with sudo thunar (on the TDE),
and can save to files ok with that, so it's not some global problem about
saving to files.
Any suggestions as to how to resolve the problem?
Thanks.
Nigel.
Problem resolved.
I wasn't expecting to find another text editor under the 'Actions' menu for
editing as root. 10 years of working with kde 3.5.10 and earlier using
konquerorsu had me confused as to why 'Open With' kate, kwrite, etc wasn't
able to save as root as earlier konquerorsu versions do.
I must learn to look in unexpected places when what used to work no longer
does.
