Look guys, I didn't ask for a Lecture on how to do things your way, I
just ask where is Konqueror in Root.
How very true! Many a times, I know what risk I run by using GUI as root user, but I still want to. I have my calculations of risk. They have no right to disable running stuff as root. Make it hard. Okay. Spew out warnings. I don't care. But, just let the thing work! Disabling it is just imposing your viewpoints on everyone and it is NOT alright!
Lots of Love,
Me
