This is my little simple script but nothing worked since I can't gain root access from the command os.system

I want to make this work at reboot. And also place an Icon as well.

Re: Need help with this command
 

As said before, you can't gain root access inside the script. The script has to be run as root!

Re: Need help with this command
 

Show me how to do that? from shell batch or something automatically without going through the xterminal and run it manually
