+ When trying to launch a root session of Midnight Commander in Konsole, it 
crashes. I managed to fix the problem by opening an ordinary session (non root) 
and going to Tools>Configure Konsole and opening Session Tab. Under Session tab 
I selected Root Midnight Commander and found the following in the execute box.
  su -c 'mc -c'
  I changed this to sudo su -c 'mc -c' and the program now starts normally. Not 
even sure if this is a bug but shouldn't it be enabled by default? I found this 
with Ubuntu 6.06 and with Kubuntu 6.10.
  Cheers,
  Alastair
