kdesu refuses to work and KDE logout fails


Hi all,

yet another little problem, I just ran into with the latest Slackware64-current: kdesu refuses to work.

Whenever I type something like
Code:
$ kdesu konqueror
this is where the CLI gets stuck. Konsole doesn't return to the prompt.

I have no idea, but I'd not be surprised, if this was related with the Xorg problems in combination with NVIDIA graphics adapters, some users reported here. BTW, I cannot properly logoff. Instead of throwing me back to KDM, the screen gets black, with the only exception of the mouse pointer. To get back to KDM in order to log on, again, I have to kill the X server first, with Ctrl-Alt-Del.

Does anyone else also have this problem? (And possibly know, how to fix it...? )
