Hello all!
I'm wondering if it's possible to pop up the gksu / kdesudo / kdesu when needed.
For example, I suddenly want to copy a file from my home folder to somewhere outside e.g. /usr/local/bin
When i ctrl+c ctrl+v the file from my home to /usr/local/bin, a dialog box prompting for root password appears, and copying would only be successful if i entered the right password.
I looked at kde-apps.org but best I could find is an additional context menu: "copy as root/ move as root" which would make my context menu ugly :(
Oh and I use dolphin in kde 4 with debian/gnu linux, but i think a solution should apply anywhere (with necessary modification)
Thank you very much!
