You still will get a GUI to enter the password. When running su/sudo by a launcher, you at least need to run it in a terminal emulation. Btw. perhaps only a bug for Arch Linux and not for Debian. I didn't make this test for my Debian install. I'll do it within the next days. > Maybe pkexec is the solution? Perhaps it is, but AFAIK I have to launch lxpolkit to use it, I already prepared my .jwmrc, but it's still commented out. $ cat .jwmrc | grep lxpol <!-- lxpolkit is needed when e.g. using "pkexec" instead of "gksudo" --> <!-- <StartupCommand>/usr/lib/lxpolkit/lxpolkit</StartupCommand> --> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
