GNOME desktop environment. In the "Applications" menu, in one of the submenus is "Root Terminal" Running "Root Terminal" produced this error message: Could not launch 'Root Terminal' Failed to execute child process "gksu" (No such file or directory) The "Root Terminal" menu item is trying to run this command: gksu /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator However, it appears that gksu is no longer part of openSUSE. Also, the file x-terminal-emulator does not exist. Either "Root Terminal" should not be installed within GNOME in openSUSE, or, the command should be altered, perhaps to something like this: gnomesu /usr/bin/gnome-terminal Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. I marked this as an "Easy workaround..." However, when you see the error message, you have no idea what is wrong, what it is trying to tell you. So, there may be others like me who will spend lots of time trying to figure out what is wrong. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
