Hi Tim,

I just realized that I have installed both, kdesudo-kde3 and kdesudo. I don't 
know how this happens. The same is for konsole and konsole-kde3. Might it be 
that with default Ubuntu Jaunty install those packages are installed by 
default?

By deinstallation of kdesudo the two packages update-manager-kde and 
update-notifier-kde are deinstalled. Is there a replacement in KDE3?

After deinstallation of kdesudo I changed the file edit-as-root.desktop to 
it's original state but now I have the same problem like before:  "Command 
not found!"

Thank you
Gerhard
