Re: how to run kdesu without asking password?

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?
