How to run a program with root privilege using terminal

Thursday, January 16, 2014

Some apps can't run with full functions without root privilege, if you have a trusted app and you want to run it with root privilege, you can accomplish that using terminal, just follow the following steps

Step 1: Open terminal Crtl + Alt + T

Step 2: Write the following command then type your system password

sudo <application_name> 

for example

sudo gdebi-gtk 

or just use the terminal as root then run the program by normal way

sudo -s

after that you can run any program with root privilege as normal like this

gdebi-gtk
