How to start GNOME terminal as root?
How can I start the GNOME terminal logged in directly as root? I would be interested in a panel launcher, or a launcher in the applications menu.
My distribution is Fedora 11 x86_64. Thank You! |

without sudo?
Can't it be done without sudo ?
I managed to open Nautilus as root using beesu... can't a similar thing be used for the terminal or sth? |
I now KDE has a root terminal.
Perhaps someone who uses KDE can paste the command used to open the terminal. |
I believe this should work. gksu is a gtk frontend for sudo. I believe the KDE version uses a kde frontend for the same command. kdesu is the kde frontend.
gksu gnome-terminal |
No gksu on fedora
There is no gksu on Fedora, only beesu, a similar alternative.
But when I run beesu gnome-terminal from the terminal the following errors occur: Code:
[tatacalu@leptan1 ~]$ beesu gnome-terminal How is the security implemented into the launchers from the System->Administration menu [for example] ? Or... as repo said, cand someone with Fedora KDE paste the command here ? Thank you |

$ kdesu konsole If you're running KDE, why are you trying to use a Gnome superuser dialog to launch a Gnome shell application? |

Did some quick search and this is reported as an gtk | glib bug.
Which version of these are you running? |
Gtk / glib
I am running Fedora 11:
* GTK+ 1.2.10-68 * GTK2 2.16.5-1 * GLIB 1.2.10-32 * GLIB2 2.20.4-1 I assume that they are as close to the latest stable packages as I can get, as I am updating my packages as often as the updates come out. |
