GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 44437
Running nautilus as root should optionally not give a warning
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
I can imagine this being really irritating. However, what is the user level for "root" the first time it gets run? It'd be nice if it would be same as for the primary user for the machine, but it's hard to know who that is. You could run the first time druid for root, which doesn't seem to happen right now, and let a user set a user level then. Only non experts could get a warning about the dangers of being root. ------- Additional Comments From arlo@workthatmouse.com 2000-11-03 17:13:32 ---- This should probably be some sort of preference. When we get around to doing the big preference move, I'll work this in somewhere. ------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org 2001-09-09 20:45 -------
Changing to "old" target milestone for all bugs laying around with no milestone set.
We never show the "root warning" anymore. Closing this bug as fixed.
