Description:
 I’m working on kicker & kdesktop, to run a
program from the KMenu as other user in an easy &
friendly way.In order to run a program as another
user you just have to click with the right button
of your mouse on each application item of the
Menu. After clicking “run as other user”, from
the service menu, it calls
popupExecuteCommand(QString command,bool
runAsOther). In this way, the kicker calls
popupexecutecommand(”command”,true), and the
kdesktop will show the dialog “minicli” with
the voice “Run as other User” checked and
visible.That’s all! =)Note: I’ve added a new
DCop call “popupExecuteCommand(QString
command,bool runAsOther)”to the kdesktop!

The patch contains also a Bug Fix:
Bug Description:
Kicker 3.5.3 (kubuntu)
popupMenu_ pointer is deleted only when the the
parent panel is deleted or when a panel button
is clicked.
Then:
1)when the popupMenu_ is shown, if you click on
the screen around the kmenu, the hightlighted item
on a submenu is executed!
2)When the popupMenu_ is shown, if you change the
hightlighted item, the popupMenu_ is not
destroyed!
3)Every Menu can show more popupMenus at the same
time…
