Can I set Ubuntu or Fedora to use a UAC-style prompt when something fails due to privileges? As in, in Nautilus, when I open a .run installer and it requires root, can I have it automatically burst an elevation prompt like the one in gksudo or the Software Centre?

Are you looking for a screen-dimming option as well? Is this for general use or for a development environment? – G Koe – 2014-02-16T05:56:13.080
