Fedora 14

i can run a program with another user with:

(command before): xhost local:transmission-user

the command:
sudo -u transmission-user -- /usr/bin/transmission-gtk &

from the gnome-terminal.

But:

echo -e '#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Terminal=true
Icon[en_US]=gdu-encrypted-lock
Name[en_US]=transmission-user
Exec=sudo -u transmission-user -- /usr/bin/transmission-gtk &
Name=transmission-user
Icon=gdu-encrypted-lock' > transmission-user.desktop
chmod +x transmission-user.desktop

it doesn't work, if i put the command in a .desktop file.

Why?
