@Mateo i think what they mean to say is that phones can't run wine, so windows applications have to be streamed via vnc. in that case it would be accurate
There are already some existing questions asked here about running commands as another user. However, the question and answers focus on a single command instead of a long group of commands.
For example, consider the following script:
#!/bin/bash
set -e
root_command -p param1 # run as root

There is an example of "how to do this" on Stuart Colville's blog, but the example used there and the explanation of why it works is unclear.
To keep things simple:
Let's say you have a bash alias like
alias rxvt='urxvt'
which works fine.
alias rxvt='urxvt -fg '#111111' -bg '#111111''

@Ederico Interesting... the answer was here 3 minutes (!) after you posted your question and you already worked around it? Maybe you should give it a bit more time before you start reinstalling. ;) — gertvdijk34 secs ago
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS where I have the directories /etc/rc0.d, /etc/rc1.d, /etc/rc2.d, ..., /etc/rc6.d.

My Ubuntu is set to run ntp before dovecot at startup. (See my earlier question: The rc0.d,rc1.d,... directories in /etc in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS)
However, I suspect that dovecot may have finished executing before ntp finished (even if the ntp started executing earlier).

any pyqt people around? i'm having the weirdest problem... i have a qstring. if i write it to a file and read it back as a normal list, everything turns out as you would expect. if I convert it from a qstring to a python string and split on newlines, however, something goes wooly and the text parsing that was working, before pyqt tried to propogate it's magic types in to all the other variables/structures it touches, is totally borked.
I don't have Ubuntu installed, but i used to use it. recently my windows 8 failed to boot, and i cant get in, automatic repair inst working either. i was wondering if there is anyway using a Ubuntu live CD to fix this. this has NOTHING to do with an Ubuntu installation, a clean windows.
