Anyone have an idea what this means.

Found Problem, wrong chmod on /etc/sudoers, thanks anyway guys

I also had that problem but I had the right chmod on sudoers.

It was solved in my case by switching kdesud back to root:nogroup (I had it as root:root) then using konqueror via kdesu, going to the /usr/bin directory and switching "Advanced Permissions" on kdesud to "Set GID."

Something broke when I switched it out of "nogroup."
