Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gedit

I want to edit the limits.conf file, and because i haven't quite figured out 
how to get superuser rights with the GUI i tried with the sudo gedit 
etc/security/limits.conf command in the terminal, but all I got was a blank 
gedit screen. And yes, I am really new at this.
I'm using karmic koala and gedit 2.28.0.
