I would like to create a task launcher for my GNOME desktop that launches a program that requires root access. How would I do this? For example, I'd like to start Synaptic from a task launcher. Thanks for the help. Scott Huey P.S. - I'm running Debian Sarge, with the latest stable version of GNOME.


install sudo, add yourself to the group sudo, and put yourself in /etc/sudoers

Then add the command you want to your "sessions" (gnome-session-configuration) and prepend "sudo " to the command.
