How do i set nightly to run as root, I am both user and root

I run VSIDO as my OS. I can start Nightly as root in terminal but this is no good as my wife also uses the computer and needs access to the internet. I have this command set in the Fluxbox menu , /home/gordon/browser/firefox-32.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64/firefox/firefox, which does run nightly but is virtually unusable as the background is bright white and you can't see any of the boxes or what they contain, nor is the menu bar readable and it will not update nightly. What command do I need to set to run nightly automatically as root every time it starts up ?

Hi Just managed to work out the answer myself so please ignore the question and mark it solved please. In case you need to know the command it is ,
'''launch su-to-root -X -c''' /home/gordon/browser/firefox-32.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64/firefox/firefox .
sorry to have caused any trouble
Cheers
Gordon

  • How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

    How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

    The Guest Network function of the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme cannot be enabled when the device is in Bridge Mode. Unfortunately, with another router...the Telus...upstream on your network, Bridge Mode is indicated as the correct setting for all other routers on the network.
    If you can replace the Telus gateway with a simple modem (that performs no routing functions), you should be able to configure either the Time Capsule or the AirPort Extreme....whichever is connected to the modem....to provide a Guest Network.

  • How can I set up a wi-fi network, using one time capsule and two airport express

    how can I set up a wi-fi network, using one time capsule and two airport express ?
    The time capsule is near the Mac. ok
    The first Airport is on the corridor, ok, works well and the App on the iPad signals so, ok
    But when I plug the next Airport on another room nearby nothing happens, and signals disconected ....
    is the signal so weak that is not able to go to ono room to the other ?

    Well, even if you have the first express set up to extend the network, the second express can only extend from the TimeCapsule.
    Maybe you got walls of sheetrook in the way, or kitchen/bathroom tiles, etc, dampening the signal rapidly.

  • HT1373 how can you set up another iTunes account but keep all your purchases and music from a previous account

    how can you set up another iTunes account but keep all your purchases and music from a previous account

    An iTunes account is something you log into online to buy music.
    An iTunes library is a collection of media and other items (including apps) on your computer.  This is what you see when you open iTunes.
    So, do you mean account or library?  You can set up a new iTunes account but all your purchases made in that account will remain in the old account and cannot be moved.  You can set up a new library by starting iTunes and immediately hold down the option key.

    Thank you QuickTimeKirk...used toast to burn project... my project was in .mov, i tried to play it a dvd player, it did play... will try again tomorrow using another dvd player just to be sure it'll will really work with dvd players.  thank you again for your reply *=)

  • How to schedule ETL jobs to run periodically after BI Apps is up and runnin

    Hi,
    How do you schedule ETL jobs to run periodically after BI Apps is install and configured? Is there document out there that explains how the ETL scheduling is setup?
    Thanks

    Using DAC we can schedule the ETL to run periodically. In DAC Execute -> Scheduler you can set the date and time for the ETL which need to be scheduled. You can get detail information in guide 'Oracle® Business Intelligence Data Warehouse Administration Console User’s Guide'

    Thanks!

    That is poor type layout.
    European languages read left to right, a ragged left edge is the worst possible layout for listed data.
    The only circumstance you should use the left/right alignment is in header/footers for running heads and page numbers wheer they are widely separated and therefore easy to scan as individual short snipetts of text.

  • HT1420 How do I set up parental control on book downloads?  My daughter and I use the same Apple ID info.

    How do I set up parental controls on my apple account, I want to censor the books that she's dowloading. We use the same account  Thanks!

    Turning off in-app purchases and the App Store itself would be the best bet for you. You can always unlock these features as needed and lock them again.
    Apart from restricting purchases, there are a number of other restrictions you can setup. You can even setup a safe browser with remote parental controls from the App Store, like the one from Mobicip. You may find this tutorial to be helpful: How to setup Parental Controls on the iPad.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I set my "attach file" system to always show the date and offer to resort?

    When I want to attach a file to an email, or save it for that matter, I have to turn on Details instead of List in the View Menu. How can I set Thunderbird to have Details on as my default.
    Thanks!

    For use in the BB, the on-device format must be used...no PC contains the necessary file structure that the BB needs to find on the card in order to use it correctly. If you can no longer read the card via the BB nor the PC, then it's quite likely that your data is already destroyed. But, there are several PC utilities that claim to be able to recover Flash Memory devices such as SD cards...you should perhaps check those out (Zero Sum something or other? Can't recall specifically, but google will be your best friend in your quest.)
    Good luck!

  • How do I set up a Microsoft outlook email account on my iPhone and iPad?

    How do I set up Microsoft outlook email on my iPhone and iPad?

    The iPhone does not sync mail message with a desktop client. Only with the server. If bigpond doesn't have adequate server side mail filtering, maybe you should create a gmail account for yourself and set that up on the phone.
    You can configure gmail to fetch the mail from your bigpond account. The server side filtering on gmail is excellent. I see very little spam and there are very few false positives.

  • How do I set up a new iCloud account separate for my iphone and ipad?

    I have an old iCloud account for my iphone and when I bought an ipad last year I used the same iCloud account. I now have no storage left and my iphone won't back up. I want to upgrade my iphone soon but don't want to lose all my photos, contacts, etc.
    I have spent the last hour trying to create a new iCloud account so I have two separate ones for my iphone and iCloud, to no avail. Apple don't seem to have any information I submit and I am just going round in circles updating passwords! And re-enters new account details. I haven't received an email registering my new iCloud account.
    Can anyone help! Can I create two iCloud accounts? Why can't i! Even though I am using two separate email addresses.

    If it's stuck on verifying it's because she never responded to the verification email that Apple should have sent to the primary email address she used for the Apple ID she set it up with.  She should check her inbox and spam/junk folder for this email and click on the Verify Now link to verify the account.  If the email isn't there, she can go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under her Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.
    Or, you can just delete the account (which is a misnomer since until verified the account isn't really created).

  • How do I use Firefox sync on my Android device with both Aurora and Release?

    I have both Aurora and Release installed on my Android phone. I have set up a New Sync account on my desktop. I can log in to it with Release, and it syncs great.
    However, my Aurora build keeps popping a "could not sign in" notification. If I touch the notification, it takes me to sync settings. I try to log in (same username and password), but it says "Could not sign in".
    if I look in my Android settings, I have two "accounts" - one for Release and one for Aurora - and _both_ claim that they most recently synced 5 minutes ago! But I made an update to my bookmarks on desktop 10 minutes ago, and it's appeared in Release but not in Aurora. So the Aurora "last sync time" seems to be a lie.
    The reason I'm on SUMO is that I don't know if this is a supported configuration. I remember with old sync there were some rules about whether you could have multiple copies of Firefox on the same device. Is this a supported configuration? If so, should I file a bug or have I missed something here?

    HI Snickers,
    There is an option to sync tabs. About:sync-tabs works on the desktop and can see the tabs from that device however this feature is not available for the mobile device. However from an active sync the current sessions are visible from the desktop page.
    In order to restore a session you may be able to restore the session if it crashed. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1026370#answer-644109 With these instructions]
