I believe it is not a sudo configuration problem because I have this in 
sudoers:
alain ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

IIRC it can have something to do with some new behaviour (should be 
safer) of sudo in recent versions. And an interesting detail: kjobviewer 
is running as root!

I have Mandriva 2007, kernel 2.6.17-5mdv, sudo 1.6.8p12-4mdv

thanks, again,
Alain
