[kde-solaris] KDE Desktop Lock

[LeBar, Russell J]

TRy this:


As root, run the following (adjust the /usr/local/kde31 paths as needed). 
ln -s /usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib
ln -s /usr/local/kde31/lib/libkdefakes.so.4.1.0 /usr/lib
chown root /usr/local/kde31/bin/kcheckpass
chmod u+s /usr/local/kde31/bin/kcheckpass

I had this behaviour too. I have build KDE 3.1.1 on my own and have 
modified the startup script from sun for my purposes.
I just installed the packages from Mathias Meyer yesterday and all 
works fine for now. I can now startup applications as root like the 
users application.
I guess, that this is a permission problem in the startup script - some 
processes are not running with the right permission. But I have not 
checked that.
