i don't want to run it with root

the MYUSER is a user with low permissions!! 


i just don't know how to run a GUI application from a .desktop file with another user under Fedora 14.


[another user= not the one that i'm using for everyday desktop use]

Why do you want to run transmission as super user? Isn't that 
extremely unsafe since its a peer-to-peer data transfer app? If you 
could share, maybe there are safer ways to do whatever you are trying 
to achieve?
