Changes look good. './wifix.py --qt' no longer fails in a gnome
environment with kde libs installed. When kdesu is not found, wifix
notes this & then uses kdesudo. See below for terminal output.

kermiac@yoda:~/kdesudo$ ./wifix.py --qt
kdesu: program not found.

________________________________________________

I am not sure if it was due to wifix being run in a livecd environment
or not, but running './wifix.py --qt' in a live session of mint 9 kde
gave a segmentation fault after displaying the device ID information
(i.e. the device ID information was not found in the database). See
right-hand side terminal in attached screenshot.

This *may* be due to the fact that I was running a livecd. This issue
will need to be verified on real hardware.

The left-hand side terminal is a separate issue that will go in a
separate bug report.

Status in Wifix: Fix Committed

Bug description:
Wifix wont start when running wifix with qt interface in ubuntu.
There are some distros (ubuntu) that kdesu is provided by kdesudo, 
When wifix starts and checks for dependencies, it checks if kdesu is installed, and wont start if its not.
Wifix should check for kdesu OR kdesudo.
