You should add user 'freevo' to the /etc/sudoers file. Or, better, add the commands that freevo may run as root in that file. For example, add the following entry: Zeus ~ # cat /etc/sudoers | grep freevo freevo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/nvram-wakeup, /bin/mount, /sbin/grub-set-default, /bin/ps, /bin/egrep, /sbin/shutdown In freevo's local_conf.py, add 'sudo' to the commands that freevo executes, for example: Zeus ~ # cat /home/freevo/.freevo/local_conf.py | grep sudo SYS_SHUTDOWN_CMD = "sudo shutdown -h now" SYS_RESTART_CMD = "sudo shutdown -r now" # AUTOSHUTDOWN_WAKEUP_CMD = sudo /PATH/TO/set_acpi.sh AUTOSHUTDOWN_WAKEUP_CMD = "sudo /usr/bin/nvram-wakeup" AUTOSHUTDOWN_REMOUNT_BOOT_CMD = "sudo /bin/mount" AUTOSHUTDOWN_GRUB_CMD = "sudo /sbin/grub-set-default 0" # AUTOSHUTDOWN_LILO_CMD = "sudo /sbin/lilo" Cheers, Richard. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
