OK....  I found "gnome-commander".  It wasn't installed.  I installed it, started it,
and requested a root session.  Got the pop-up asking for a password.  Entered it and
got a root window.

I then checked what was running and found this....

/usr/bin/kdesu gnome-commander

As I mentioned....  I'm a KDE user so as one would expect I have kde-runtime
installed which provides /usr/bin/kdesu

I could not find any package  that supplies either xdg-su or gnomesu

I also just realized that my eyes missed your platform information at the top of your
original email.
