The wireless tools that LinSSID uses require root privilege to access. If your machine has sudo, the best way to run is to launch the program and let it ask you for a password. That way it will only use root privilege to execute a few privileged system commands, but LinSSID itself will not run as a root process. The other way to run LinSSID is to launch it from a root account or with su or sudo. It will run, but in my opinion that's a bit more dangerous. One never knows what nasty bugs may be waiting to damage. ... e.g. # visudo ... Cmnd_Alias LINSSID = /sbin/iwlist, /sbin/iw, /bin/cat /proc/net/wireless <USER> ALL = LINSSID $ setsid linssid $ sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo ^C Therefore from a terminal emulator for the X, e.g. xfce4-terminal, run LinSSID: $ linssid AND/OR $ cp /usr/share/applications/linssid.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/ $ sed -i 's|false$|true|g' ~/.local/share/applications/linssid.desktop Eventually, this can be done via polkit.
