kdesudo is NOT fixed, there is still a permission problem:

$ kdesudo xterm
X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 171
  Major opcode:  147
  Minor opcode:  3
  Resource id:  0x0
Failed to open device

passprompt


Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server

$ dpkg -s kdesudo
Package: kdesudo
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional

The bug has been diagnosed: to connect to X, you need to have access
.Xauthority, which is problematic in a NFS+root_squash environment:
$ ls -al ~/.X*
-rw------- 1 beekhof spc 738 2008-01-20 17:44 /home/beekhof/.Xauthority

Currently, the only solution I am aware of is:
apt-get install kdesu; apt-get remove kdesudo

kdesu works fine.
