Fedora 14, with GNOME:

sudo works without password:

visudo
MYUSER ALL=(transmission-user) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/transmission-gtk

then:
xhost local:transmission-user
sudo -u transmission-user -- /usr/bin/transmission-gtk

ok, it runs without prompting for a password. [I'm logged in with the "MYUSER" user]

But: when i want to use kdesu, then:

kdesu -c "/usr/bin/transmission-gtk" -u transmission-user &
it asks for a password.

How can i set kdesu to not prompt for a password with a given user/command? [just like with sudo]
Thanks.
