I was going to file a bug about appmenu not working with programs launched as another user (not necessarily root) with gksu. Would I be right in thinking that solving this current bug would solve that?
As I'm about to prove, I'm no programmer or software designer, but here's a possible solution to David Barth's second concern: In cssm, there is a module (Title Bar Info) that puts the word "ROOT:" in the window title of root apps. At present, appmenu (or the panel?) does not reflect this i.e. it doesn't show "ROOT:". If you could find a way to "grab" this info from the window title (and switch on the module, which isn't on by default, and may not even be installed until cssm is) this might be a workable solution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592842 Title: appmenu doesn't work with apps run as sudo root -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
