kde-4.0 "tweeks" (needed?)

[Michael W. Holdeman]

OK I have been playing around with rc2 etc for a while. I uninstalled it 
scrubbed ~/.kde4 and installed 4.0.

First impressions are  good, very different from 3.5.8 but I am always open to 
learning to do things new ways. And it is really great colors etc... and at 
least my installation is VERY fast!

I do need a little help in a few areas at this time tho.

1. attempting to run anything that requires kdesu wont work as kdesu is 
apparently broken. I can make them work by starting a konsole and running 
them with kdesudo, but this is not that great. How do we fix this?

2. If I add an app to the favorites in teh menu, when I reboot they are gone.

3. knetworkmanager does not automatically start when logging in? How do we 
restart apps like that when logging in?

4. battery plasmoid only shows the battery accurately on my Dell D820 when I 
select to always show both batteries, I only have one, the other shows blank, 
but takes up the space.

5. KDEPIM I realize was not ready, but can we get a repo with the betas? I 
tried them with the 3.97 rc that we had a while back and they were not that 
bad, I found some things I liked.


Well more later but these things are my really only gripes now, other than 
that it seems to be working well enough that I rarely go back and log into 
3.5.8.
