Thanks MBantz, gksu is it. A interesting note, when entering gksu in the run command, the predictive text brought up both gksu and gksudo. It would seem the latter would be a possibility as well.

Hi,

I think it's pretty much the same thing : 2 letters more to type in the second.  :)

LXDE is built with GTK, therefore it uses gksu. Sudo, in any form, is not enabled by default.
