Re: F25 Workstation - Problem gparted

[Joerg Lechner]

Hi,
tried to start gparted out of an xterm with su and  pw no success. Logged in as root,
xterm, gparted started. What's in this case the difference in giving as user su and pw
and beeing logged in as root?

see log copied from xterm:

[joerg@linux ~]$ su

[root@linux joerg]# gparted

GNOME in X11 to run gparted.This is because it tries to run with root privileges, right?--
