By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Jan Franke 2011-08-23 06:00:07 CDT

In terminal su+PW works fine.
In [Alt]+[F2] (i.e. "kdesu konqueror") and in "run command" my root-pw was not accepted, I tried it several times.

Distribution is Kanotix "Hellfire". Trinity is installed along with kde4.

regards

Is this report still valid?

Much work has been performed in the starttde (nee startkde) script to avoid $PATH issues. Closing due to lack of response and age.
