For your case you have the Thunar file manager in which case you would use:
gksu thunar
or gksudo thunar
Kubuntu
If you had Kubuntu then the File manager would be Dolphin in which case you would use:
kdesu dolphin
or kdesudo dolphin
Ubuntu / Mythbuntu / Edubuntu
If you had Ubuntu you would use Nautilus as the File Manager and then would use:
gksu nautilus
or gksudo nautilus
.
Lubuntu
If you had Lubuntu you would use PCManFM as the File Manager and then would use:
gksu pcmanfm
or gksudo pcmanfm
.
