    Root File Browser

    One thing that I really think should be added as default in Gnome is the root file browser. So often one needs to adjust permissions or move/copy a file outside the home area.

    Setup Link

    A quick and easy way to set up a link is to edit a new file:
    "gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/Nautilus-root.desktop" and add the following:

    [Desktop Entry]
    Name=File Browser (Root)
    Comment=Browse the filesystem with the file manager
    Exec=gksudo "nautilus --browser %U"
    Icon=file-manager
    Terminal=false
    Type=Application
    Categories=Application;System;
