Problem description:
I'm trying to add game emulators in Xbian and somehow managed to basically make it work from the console by running commands as root (sudo).

How can I run commands as root in Advanced Launcher? ... either the main script or at least some specific commands within it.

I do not know how AL works, but I don't believe that this is working ever. You can not share screen between applications.

If you want go play a game you have to stop Kodi first - start and play your game - and after finishing game restart Kodi.

[mocarela]

Yes, that is what I'm trying to achieve. And in order to stop XBMC I need to be root.

[Nachteule]

Terminal

sudo stop xbmc

doesn't work?

[mocarela]

I know how to stop it (sudo service xbmc stop), but it asks for the password. And I want to avoid it (i.e. overcome any user interaction).

Actually, I managed it by adding openvt in /etc/sudoers.d/xbian file.

[Nachteule]

You are using wrong command to stop kodi

If you are using

Terminal

sudo stop xbmc

you do not have to enter password for user xbian

Btw, you already managed /etc/sudoers.d/xbian and if you're looking into, you'll find /sbin/start and /sbin/stop there

Before I forget it, this file is owned by package xbian-update and will be overwritten with any update of package xbian-update
