Problem with background mode
Last modified: 2011-01-28 16:56:07 MST
Hi, in a program, I tried to launch sudo in background using the following command : xterm -e 'sudo -b /usr/bin/gedit' but the gedit program is never launched. I tried : xterm -e 'sudo /usr/bin/gedit' and this worked. So I suspect a problem with the background mode... My system : Debian Etch, xterm(225), and sudo 1.6.8p12 Thanks for your help! Roland
