What I'd like to see (though I don't use any DE, so that's not strictly true) is maybe having a right-click context menu in both KDE and GNOME where one option is "run with sudo"; if it could be set up to only display this after checking with sudo that the program is usable, that would be even better. -- Levi Ramsey [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Take due notice and govern yourselves accordingly.
