...
set by step volumes (tons?) of TFM
1: login in as user.
2: as user open a terminal window
3: switch from the user to root using steps 3a and 3b
3a: type su - <enter> at the prompt
3b: enter root's password <enter> at the prompt
4: type konqueror & <enter> (the & lets you keep the
terminal)
how do I understand the original question, this step 4 didn't
work for the original inquirer; and still, he is unable to use
the alternative way via kdesu
and some said that it is okay that Konqueror can't be run as root
and you said "The point is, I believe, that to disable root is
considered a good thing."
so keep on topic and explain to me, how do I do step 3 if root is
disabled, and what is it good for?
oh, and if you are really bored, you can answer my previous
question that you have chosen to ignore in your reply - how are
the Windows related, when we are talking about doing
administrative tasks using the root account in Fedora, and not
about using the Administrator account to do daily tasks in
Windows?
