Yes, I installed the tdesudo package. I also tried to return kdesu by install kdelibs and kde-kde-runtime in which the program is located, but this did not bring any effect.
I am not too familiar with Slackware (though I tried different versions, like Slax, and I forget what else); however, this does remind me of my problems getting started with Debian.
In Debian, on my first install, I enter an empty password for admin, then I use sudo or sudo su to gain root privileges. Later, once I've got packages installed, etc. (including tdesudo), I create a root user, and edit my sudoers list. When I first install, though, I can only gain admin privileges in the shell (for downloading and installing pkgs, etc.), but I cannot open any GUI program with admin privileges using tdesu command or tdesudo. Just guessing that Slackware might behave in a similar manner.
No doubt there is a better solution to this problem (and I would be glad to hear it myself). Yet it took me some searching in the forums to find this semi-solution.
You might know more than I; but this works for me.

Hi,
I install tde together with kde4 on my Slackware 14.2, it seems to work well, after which I remove system kde4 to leave one Trinity. I noticed that I can not configure the system settings in the control panel, because the graphical configuration of tdecmshell does not accept my administrator password! Command /opt/trinity/bin/tdecmshell tdm --emdeb 83888742 --lang ru says "Error - TDE su" wrong password, try again.
Before kde4 was removed, this worked. What am I doing wrong?
Did you install the TDE & Trinity packages for sudo?
sudo apt-get install sudo-trinity tdesudo-trinity kdesudo-trinity
This might be a little different on your system, as I run Debian not Slackware. Until I've installed these packages I always have similar problems.
