Comment 47 for bug 468589

I have a nano window open following typing your commands. But it is blank except for some menu options at the bottom. which appear to be shift commands for help etc I am a bit stuck and probably out of my depth. I was able to open S40unmounts in Kate but can not save any edits because I am not root user. I think this is the heart of the matter. I have been looking on net and forums how to get in as root user but no luck yet. It is mostly along the lines, 'for security reasons the previous edit as root user functions have been removed in KDE4'
