[maemo-users] What is the risk to enable RD Mode in X Terminal on N900?

[From: khalid khan]

I already did install the USSD widget using  Application Manager but it is
not working showing "error" when I "click to update" on the desktop USSD
widget may be because of improper settings.

Can you please help me to guide step by step settings in the USSD widget
avoiding to use X Terminal.

Thanks
