Gparted not starting from desktop menu in TC10

(1/1)

Rich:
The desktop file for  gparted  in  TC10  looks like this:

--- Code: ---tc@box:~$ cat /usr/local/share/applications/gparted.desktop | grep Exec
Exec= /usr/local/sbin/gparted %f
tc@box:~$
--- End code ---
As a result, all you get is a popup saying you need root privileges to run gparted. It should look like this:

--- Code: ---Exec=sudo /usr/local/sbin/gparted %f
--- End code ---

I have another issue with  gparted  described here:
http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,23057.0.html

Juanito:
Since you can easily destroy data with gparted, it was done like that deliberately to encourage users to think before proceeding.

Rich:
Hi Juanito
OK, no problem. I fixed it at my end.
