how to open files as root user via right click

Insert the following lines into the new file

for uri in $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_SELECTED_URIS; do
gksudo "gnome-open $uri" &
done

Save the file and make it executable:

chmod +x $HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/Open\ as\ root

Look at here.

Key point is gconf-editor

In order to add the configuration editor to the gnome menu follow

System -> Preferences -> Main Menu

and select System Tools tab. Check Configuration Editor button. That’s it

This address makes that thing. I did not have time to give a try but you can share your opinions if you have tried 🙂

There are good discussions about mounting iso files in ubuntu in ubuntu forums. I tried the nautilus script thing and it is really good indeed. A summary of ubuntu forums is made in an alternative site.

When I was searching something I found the following script from a far-east site. Edit the .desktop file as:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Matlab
GenericName=Matlab 2010b
Comment=Matlab:The Language of Technical Computing
Exec=sh /usr/local/MATLAB/R2010b/bin/matlab -desktop
Icon=/usr/local/MATLAB/Matlab.png
Terminal=false
Categories=Development;Matlab;

You can look at here.

/etc/environment file holds the system-wide environment variables. (*). For a command file session playing with .basrc file is better I think.

This post helped me a lot. I use AMD + on-board Nvidia on my laptop. I rotated my external 22″ LCD.

Also this is helpful for multi monitor, perhaps.
