So the question is, how can I enable the root privilegies with the file manager?? Should I execute it from the terminal after the sudo gainroot? (and in this case, what'd be the command??)

I've installed mc and gpe file manager (emelfm2 I can't find), but both need root access. How can I start these programs with root privilegies??

sorry... I've tried to install mc on my n900. After downloading the file mc_4.6.2-prel1-maemo5_armel.deb I typed:
apt-get install mc_4.6.2-prel1-maemo5_armel.deb
but terminal say couldn't find pachage mc_4.6.2-prel1-maemo5_armel.deb ??? You know where is the mistake?
apt-get install mc_4.6.2-prel1-maemo5_armel.deb
but terminal say couldn't find pachage mc_4.6.2-prel1-maemo5_armel.deb ??? You know where is the mistake?

davide, why do you use terminal? Open default File manager, go to downloaded file and just click on it.

the first thing I've done is to write sudo gainroot, then neither sudo gpe-filemanager nor root gpe-filemanager worked. Then I've typed exit, and then root, and I've entered to busybox (how is that??), then gpe-filemanager and done Thx!

kolos: done it. but the "...installation file corrupted"
May be downloaded in a bad place.... I often have to choose the OS. Is it "armel" fon n900? one more thing: are mc and gpe equivalent to browse efficiently the system?
