Hi rburkartjo

There is a command for that, specific to the user spot

Code: Select all

run-as-spot /opt/vivaldi/vivaldi

However, if you have a 'tks' account that you set up and want to use, please try something like the following

Code: Select all

run-as tks /opt/vivaldi/vivaldi

There is a different method that is running Vivaldi as root (though I cannot fully endorse this method)

Code: Select all

/opt/vivaldi/vivaldi --no-sandbox

Meeeooow!
