After typing in the root password and pressing enter, the TDEsu window becomes non-responsive, though it can be moved around the desktop; if another window overlaps it and is then moved away it does not refresh. From the command line I can kill it with kill -9 <pid>; e.g., kill -9 12497 for the above instance.
