kdesu failing to start - bad display name

The problem was simple. I was trying to launch something with kdesu and I got the "bad display name ":0.0" " error.
After some googling, I found this gentoo thread ,where the solution turned out to be to use "xhost +" to allow the connection to the X for root users and then to use "xhost -" to stop it. It worked.
