Hi William,

Please read info su and you will see that it with the proper things will switch you to almost anything.

Hi;

I originally asked this question on the Gnome list and got this quoted
response:

Is there a relatively simple way to change admin/system programs
called
by gnome launchers so that they ask for / accept the users password
and
the sudoers file and configuration instead of only the root
password?
I think that's distribution specific.  Fedora, for example, asks for
the root password (or at least it did up to FC5, the last one I used).
 Ubuntu asks for the user's password.  I believe the app used is
gksu(do).

I have just done a clean Fedora 7 install, replacing FC6.  I'll ask on
the Fedora list.

So, I am asking.  Can I change the su launcher gizmo to a sudo qizmo
with out ripping things apart?  e.g. change something in the launcher
command line?
