Thanks, Irving.  There were two process ID's involving kdesudo running and I did experience a couple of crashes involving the new Karmic kde update manager that pops up from the "i squared" notification icon in kde systray. In those cases, I'd start the upgrade and within a second or two it would just disappear without the upgrade being completed. I killed the processes and will let you and the list know if it occurs again.  If it does, I may just make Adept the default manager as on earlier versions and see what happens.  I really loved Adept and the notifier on earlier versions.
