K-Menu --> System Settings --> User Management (under system administration)
to be familiar with your own privileges, click on your name, and click
modify, click on the "privileges and groups" tab, and take note of what
options you have. close this window, and now click "New", fill all
appropriate fields, go to "privileges and groups" tab, and check the
appropriate boxes, be sure to check the last one about Administering,
without it, the user can't use "sudo" or "kdesudo". lastly, check the
last tab, the security one, and also fill as appropriate. click ok, and
you're done, the new user can be used right away

For other users to shoe up you have to change the Login Theme to on
that shows the users.
Bye the way there is a bug, in order to change the login theme you have
to either use terminal or krunner

and enter

kdesudo kcmshell4 kdm

You might try in a shell(konsole) the following,
man kcmshell4
That is the manual of commands.
man "command"
where "command" is replaced by the command word and
the manual will show some information on the command.
Also,
man -k "word"
Where "word" is any thing related to the command you are
looking for, it will show all commands in the manual that
have that "word" in the command description.
Good luck!

Hi!

I just installed gparted and it seems it uses "gksu" to launch
itself. Basically,
that means it asks you for root's password, not your own. Since root doesn't
have a password on a default install, nothing you enter will ever be accepted.
Long story short, you either need to find out how to make gksu behave like
sudo or just launch gparted from a command line ,have you any ideas?

ray
PS what mean change the login theme?
