When you run a process under sudo, it will be running as the root user. Processes that that process launches will also be running as the root user; new processes run as the same user as their parent process.
So internally, no, it won’t result in another invocation of sudo. But those processes a dolphin process running as root starts will be running as the root user, same as if you had individually invoked them via sudo.
sudo dolphin
Then I act like a Windows user and go there via the GUI because I didn’t feel like learning how to use nano.
Try installing micro, it’s a 21st century terminal editor
Add
admin://in Dolphin (so/etc/sudoers.conf.d/turns intoadmin:///etc/sudoers.conf.d/)Just log in as root lol
Does it let you do that?
Also it may fail to connect to the compositor
If you’re running dolphin as sudo and open like a text file in an editor, does it edit the file with sudo?
