kdesu does not work: Can not run kde applications as root

2014-05-25 Thread Magnus Larsson
Dear kde-devel@kde.org kdesu does not work. uname -a Linux lfs 3.14.1 #2 SMP Sat Apr 19 07:20:05 CEST 2014 x86_64 GNU/Linux Kde-4.13.0, /dev using systemd. Init through sysvinit. I have compiled kde-4.13.0 from source. Kde works fine as normal user. I can not start kde applications using kdesu

Works for me (partly): Kde 4.11.1 can not find mime data

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Thank you for your help. The /usr/share addition to XDG_DATA_DIRS solved it, together with avoiding, for now, kdm and just use startx. This works for me as root user and unprivileged user. 1) cat .xinitrc exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-wit

Thank you Reece Dunn, for the feedback. I changed and exported XDG_DATA_DIRS as suggested and executed kdm. It did not solve the problem for me. Does the XDG_DATA_DIRS path go somewhere else as well, like into kdmrc? Magnus > > XDG_DATA_DIRS needs to be: > > $ export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/opt/kd

sycoca4(3799) KBuildServiceFactory::createEntry: Invalid Service : "unnamed.desktop" I have share-mime-info-1.1 installed, env | grep XDG XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/kde/xdg XDG_DATA_DIRS=/opt/kde/share There must be something fundamental I have missed. I have the code and I can reconfigure
