logged in as a regular user?

You can always open up a terminal, su to root, then fire up the
application you desire.

Ginsberg's Theorem: (1) You can't win. (2) You can't break even. (3) You
can't even quit the game. Freeman's Commentary on Ginsberg's theorem:
Every major philosophy that attempts to make life seem meaningful is
based on the negation of one part of Ginsberg's Theorem. To wit: (1)
Capitalism is based on the assumption that you can win. (2) Socialism is
based on the assumption that you can break even. (3) Mysticism is based
on the assumption that you can quit the game.

And, may I add, IF (big IF) you'd like to enter a graphical login
automagically at boot time, you can edit your /etc/inittab file.  Look for the
line that has:
id:3:initdefault
and change the 3 to a 5.
You must do this as root.
