NOTE: you cannot run as root directly or indirectly because the "run as user" functionality makes this redundant. The run as user functionality was introduced due to concerns about security and user-friendliness. So please run EasyUbuntu as a normal user, and you will be prompted for YOUR passsword at the normal time.
