Running Nautilus with root permissions
 

Quick question. How do I change from user rights to root rights for a Nautilis session (like su but only fot the GUI) with out login in as root from scratch?

Regards
p.n

Open up a shell userspace and at the command line type :
su
<password>
nautilus

It will bring up the nautilus window. Remember that many people recomend you don't do anything graphical with X. You can accidentally mess up your system more easily than you could otherwise. Also, you don't have full functionality this way, but you do have some.

Off Course. I do it with everything else... Sorry about this.

I also find myself loading nautilus as root because it is much easier to manipulate directories through nautilus than to go through the terminal.

good option...Are you sure that this option will not demage the X window

I have checked this option but it is not worked.

I have opened the shell prompt and type
su
<password>
nautilus
it's ok... but on shell prompt it gives some error message. when I close the graphical window of nautilus.....it does not close the shell prompt. is it harm my system or ok.

I personally have gotten faster at the command line for a bunch of stuff so I don't use it.

If instead of typing "nuatilus" you type "nautilus &" It will separate nautilus from the shell. That way you can type that and then close the shell without closing nautilus.

I'm not sure your error message is a bad message. You'll have to post it before anyone could make that kind of judgement. I doubt it is harming anything, however.
