Hmm, that's strange. The file .Xauthority should be owned by 
mickey:mickey. When I changed the permissions to root:root for the file, 
konqueror didn't start (with "kdesu konqueror") because kdesu could not 
connect to the X server. When I changed permissions back, konqueror 
started again (as root). There seems to be a problem with 
your .Xauthority file. You can delete it, but then you have to logout and 
login again to create a new version for the file.
