Anyone know if empower works currently? When I run *empower* in terminal it gives me the popup with the *execute* and *password *entries. However when I enter a command and my password and press enter nothing appears to be run. Any ideas? -- ~Jeff Hoogland <http://jeffhoogland.com/> Thoughts on Technology <http://jeffhoogland.blogspot.com/>, Tech Blog Bodhi Linux <http://bodhilinux.com/>, Enlightenment for your Desktop |

By libelm do you mean elementary? If so - then yes that is installed and working. It was also built from SVN at the same time as empower. I'll double check, but I don't think there was any error message in terminal. -- ~Jeff Hoogland http://JeffHoogland.com On Fri Jul 29 2011 11:49:07 AM CDT, PaulTT <pa...@gm...> wrote: > On Thu, Jul 21, 2011 at 4:11 PM, Jeff Hoogland <Jef...@li...> > wrote: > > Paul, > > > > When I run it from terminal such as "empower gedit" I enter my > > password and press enter and then nothing happens.
