I have a similar problem. Just installed Kubuntu 9.10 on a toshiba satellite
Kdesudo does not accept passwords at all. I do not have foreign characters in it.
I only can use the admin password in the admin account.
when I switch to a new user, I am not able to install or change the system, because it would not accept any admin password.
even if I go to the terminal in that user account, neither su nor sudo nor kdesudo work
cant launch any programs from the terminal that require password. any ideas??
