Yes. You're probably not running kedit as root. Try this in the Konsole: By the way, I can't read the text in the picture you uploaded. Could you copy&paste it or attach it as txt file?
EDIT: Netstrider is right about the sudo command being preferable over su. I don't know if Mandriva supports that functionality though. In Slackware root has to add user to the sudoers file to get it working. Otherwise the system reports the user to the system administrator. Heheh, I got this just now: Code: Freston@EARTH:~$ sudo kedit
Password:
Freston is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
Freston@EARTH:~$
