How to run script as ROOT from desktop icon ?
 
Hi
Is it possible to execute script as ROOT from desktop icon ?
for example on N9 we could to run something like this:
Code:
Exec=sh -c "echo rootme | devel-su -c 'sh /path/to/script.sh'"
Can we do the same on Jolla ?

And second question, someone know what the command to show notification bar ? Or where I can check it ?

Thanks

I still not at home and yes I always asking before :D
But I also tried just command (without script), I tried killall sailfish-browser:
echo rootme | devel-su -c "killall sailfish-browser"

Not worked...

p.s. and what about notification command ?

rootme is not the correct password. May be its nemo, I don't remember it - I have changed mine. Open a terminal and try devel-su manually.

You need to set password when you activate developer mode.

Ok, Finally I tried with script, it not work :( Also it not show any errors...
Here is the script:
Code:
#!/bin/bash

echo rootme | devel-su -c "killall sailfish-browser"
Also I tried to find the notification commands, but also without success:
Code:
[root@localhost ~]# dbus
-bash: dbus: command not found
Any advice ?

If you install sudo and add nemo to sudoers file you should be able to simply run with 'sudo xyz'

edit: In /etc/sudoers you just need this line:
Code:
nemo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
and no more password typing, so you can keep it longer/more randomized
