I have given my own username sudo priveleges in the /etc/sudoers file toexecute commands without having to specify a password. If I run 'sudosomeCommand...' from a terminal, this runs properly. If I create adesktop launcher, and specify 'sudo someCommand...' as the Commandnothing happens when I try to run the launcher. Does anybody know whysudo does not work in that situation ?
