So it would be cool to switch Dolphin to "root mode" during browsing the filesystem to be able to modify these files. I know that I could start Dolpin as root, but often I'm not sure from the beginning if the files I want to edit are in a folder which need root permissions. 625733 1 peter.penz19 2008-07-16 23:23:16 +0000 I agree to your request. This is already possible by providing a corresponding service menu (-> context menu -> open as root), but I did not have the time yet writing this service menu myself. I'll try to add one until KDE 4.2, but it might be possible that someone provides a service menu for this already on www.kde-apps.org :-) 650949 2 frank78ac 2008-10-04 11:38:03 +0000 *** Bug 160031 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 1082831 3 finex 2011-02-02 17:05:26 +0000 *** Bug 141604 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 1291313 4 vanmeeuwen 2012-08-24 16:21:37 +0000 Resetting assignee to default as per bug #305719 1644338 5 elvis.angelaccio 2016-12-09 19:27:35 +0000 *** Bug 180970 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 1647171 6 elvis.angelaccio 2016-12-24 11:52:49 +0000 *** Bug 373226 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 1647232 7 elvis.angelaccio 2016-12-24 15:23:17 +0000 *** Bug 265669 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 1647281 8 102983 ac4041 2016-12-24 20:38:25 +0000 Created attachment 102983 attachment-7851-0.html REMOVE MY EMAIL FROM YOUR SITE AND MAILING LIST!!!!!
