Description Francis Lamonde 2009-06-24 15:49:57 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.8.1.16) Gecko/20080716 SUSE/2.0.0.16-0.1 Firefox/2.0.0.16

When using the Open With command from contextual menu of a file in Dolphin Super User Mode, it does not launch the requested application. Sometimes it just does nothing, sometimes it displays an error message with a KDEInit error, cannot launch application. I can provide screenshots of this if required.

Tried different applications like KWRITE, KATE, OOO WRITER, they all did not launch.

Using Konqueror Super User Mode Open With command worked without a flaw using these same applications. I was able to edit the file as ROOT.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Dolphin Super User Mode;
2. Right-click a text file and choose Open With;
3. Choose KWRITE, or KATE, or OOO WRITER.
Actual Results:  
Displays an error message or simply doesn't do anything and doesn't launch requested application.

Expected Results:  
Should launch the selected application to edit the file as ROOT.
