Try 'maemo' or 'rootme'. It's strange though, I don't think it asked me for password.

How did you download it? And did you actually install it vs. downloading the install file? Did you install it via extras in the app-manager?

I found it in the application manager and from there I installed it.

Can you clarify whether it never worked or whether it stopped working?

The first time I did sudo gainroots it worked but then I closed X-terminal and then when I enter sudo gainroots it asks me for a password
