From what I can understand, computers with multiple video cards and monitors will also work without any tweaking required. Therefore, chances are you won't need to read this article — Ubuntu/X will have done all of the work for you."

Just create a scheduled task to run your favorite admin app that you need elevated permissions and create the shortcut.4sysops -- The ninth and best way to elevate a Vista application: "Some time ago, I listed eight ways to elevate a Vista application, i.e. to run it with administrator privileges. Now, I found the ninth way and I think it has one significant advantage over the others.

It lets you start a tool with Administrators rights with just a mouse click and best of all; you won’t see this ugly UAC prompt. Unfortunately, this option is a bit longwinded to set up. Essentially, you have to add a task to the Task Scheduler and configure it to run “with highest privileges”. Then you create a shortcut on your desktop referring to this task. SeanDaniel.com has a detailed description. Hey, I wonder if there is a PowerShell geek out there who can show us how to do this faster with a nice command."
