I found the answer, edit /etc/sudoers and allow a user to start /usr/bin/emelfm2 with NOPASSWD.
Thanks, anyway.

You can also install a app called sudser, then all you have to do is check the option to run program you want to run as root in you personal menu.
Also the 'rush' command gives you root access in xTerminal.
Also the 'rush' command gives you root access in xTerminal.
When I set "sudo gainroot" as command and 'Run in terminal' checked and 'Run as root' UNchecked, it opens a terminal without password prompt. So then I added the command after it:
sudo gainroot:emelfm2
to let run emelfm2 as root. But then it prompts again for a password so it appears when adding extra commandline arguments it does prompt again.
Any ideas on this ?
