It works here without any further configuration,  I can launch 
GUI apps from the konsole I started with kdesu and their windows 
pop up without errors.  The DISPLAY variable is set correctly, 
and there are no permission problems. 

This is on a Debian Sarge system with KDE 3.4 from "experimental".

Note: I'm connected remotely using XDMCP though, so my setup 
is probably different. Not that I see any obvious problems 
with the standard setup...

Christian.
