Jeremy, Thanks for the update.
I have been using gksu nautilus to change ownership of each newly formatted ext4 partition and/or root-owned files that I need to rename, modify or delete from time to time. One such use is with fstab. I prefer to rename it and modify a copy. When happy with the modification, I delete the renamed version. Doing so via the CLI can be tedious and error-prone. Is there another way to accomplish changes of ownership and/or content of root-owned files via a GUI now that gksu nautilus is no longer supported? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1110025 Title: gksu nautllus Can't change preferences MISSING file menu Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Ubuntu 64-bit 13.04 3.8.0-2 generic Alt-F2 to launch gksu nautilus with ROOT privilege.
