Another way you could do this is have a desktop shortcut involving SSH ssh tkemali -C k3b Most modern SSH setups will graphically prompt for the password if run in such a way - so you click, type the password, and the burner app runs. If you set up key based SSH you can also avoid the prompt completely.
