I have read what you all have posted and somewhat understand but not fully. I have been going round and round with this issue of kdesudo and cannot figure out what I need to do to get this fixed. I use gusty and have tried to get an answer as to how to fix this issue or how to get a fix for it. I have gone from KDE to Kubuntu groups and now here. Here is my post to a previous group ...

When my system boots up I get this message ... No command arguments supplied!
Usage: kdesudo [-u <runas>] <command>
KdeSudo will now exit...

After I click the "ok" button I try and start my wine programs hotpops2.11 which retrieves my hotmail and brings it into my Opera mail client and ypops which gets my yahoo mail. I have to uninstall kdesudo then it works a few times then I have to reinstall kdesudo then it will work a few times then I have to repeat the process. This only happens with these wine programs. I cannot find any information on kdesudo commands. I see kdesu but not sure if this is related to kdesudo nor do I understand what this programs if for and how it works.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Should I use xhost + local or something like that or force a certain version of kdesudo from somewhere?
