Ubuntu 9.04 Root Terminal
(Entry Nr. 496, by user 1 |

With Ubuntu 9.04 all of a sudden you cannot start the root terminal from the Gnome menu any more. To fix this, use this command in your application starter:<br> <br> <span class=span_content_bash>gksu /some/where/root_terminal.sh</span><br> <br> and put this into root_terminal.sh:<br> <div class=div_content_code>#!/bin/bash if [ "$EUID" = "0" ] ; then eval `dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session` /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconfd-2& fi exec /usr/bin/gnome-terminal $* </div>
