what is the root password for xterm in debian LXDE?
I tried "rootme" but is does not work, i tried also the command " sudo su-" it says "sudo:must be setuid root".
I want to execute the eclipse trough the xterm, but i guess i need root permission.
It is not recommend to open GUI applications as "root" user because some configuration files/folders will be saved with root permissions, so that the application could not be used by the normal "user" user.

Easy Debian Harmattan has some problems which Easy Debian Fremantle/Diable don't have. One of these is the issue of setuid as root not working, I don't know the solution until now. To login as root in Easy Debian, tap the "DebianChroot" icon, but any GUI application will open outside LXDE and have the mentioned permission problems.
