I will be happy with assisting you enable the Simplif圓D Software without having to open it through the Terminal. I ended up contacting support and the sorted me out.

In section 2, you might try building the script (text file) in your home folder, then opening up a terminal window and using the "su" command to become superuser. Not sure what straight Ubuntu (Unity? Gnome 3? Gnome 2? Other?) uses. On my notebook, Linux Mint 13 / Cinnamon, it's "Open as root". Hope this helps!
