If I try to run KDE's ksysguard (CTRL-ESC; ksysguard command; or KDE -> system
-> KDE system guard) when I'm not root it won't work.
Has anybody else run into this?
Any ideas?
I tried the obvious thing of doing suid root to the exectuable but it then
refuses to run at all, saying that KDE libraries aren't safe for running suid
root.
Not a real high priority issue; I can use top and xosview to get the same
effects, but it would be nice if I could get it to work.
