[kde-linux] Help needed with Konsole

[mick]

Hi,

I recently installed Fedora Core 6 and have had a few teething troubles. Most 
have now been sorted out, but one issue remains. I am not sure if it is 
related to the Fedora install or if I broke something in KDE myself.

Whenever I launch Konsole, either from a button or from some command line I 
always get a root session (which expects me to input the root password).

I can't see what causes this, but I can, for example, open a terminal window 
in Konqueror, which clearly shows I am running as my normal user. From there, 
if I launch xterm at the command line, it comes up as my normal user, but if 
I launch Konsole it comes up as root.

I have been running KDE/Fedora successfully for over a year, so I know that 
this is a recent failure.

Can anyone suggest what to do next?
