You can create a simple script, say, /usr/local/bin/capture and give permissions to lauch it as root via sudo. Script might be one-liner like #!/bin/sh exec nice -n -10 ionice -c 1 capture-command and sudo line might look like this: user ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/capture NOPASSWD here means that you just have to type 'sudo /usr/local/bin/capture' to run the script as root, no questions asked. -- Mike Kazantsev // fraggod.net
