| 1425517 | 2016-09-12 07:14:00 | If you google how, theres several articles onhow to disable Linux asking for a password with everything that required it. I wont post links as the articles are a couple of years old (mint14) and I don't know enough about Linux. But what I will share is one comment a user made: Windows assumes you're an idiot. Linux demands proof of it. :lol::lol: Bit like a wallpaper I have -- I'm tempted to put it on some peoples computers :devil (nothing rude) |

| 1425518 | 2016-09-12 07:53:00 | Imagine if you were driving down the road and wanted to turn and the car brings up a notice: "You are about to turn Right, please enter your password." It's more like "You're driving down the road and try to open the bonnet ..." - "please enter your password" is to be expected! There is a clear separation between using (with your <user> - with files in /home/<user> ) and administering the system (root user). |

Well frankly Fred, if you are going to undertake that maneuver it is better for all of us if you aren't told. :D Why bother to save them? :rolleyes: |

| 1425523 | 2016-09-12 23:23:00 | Ok, like many others I am tiring of Microsoft’s intrusion into everything you do and their collection of data, so the question is: “Which is the best Linux system available today”? Years ago I tried a couple but gave up when I couldn’t get any to work with a Soft Modem but I guess they’ve come a long way since then and Soft Modems are a thing of the past. Anyway, I think we have some Linux Users on this forum so what’s the consensus of opinion? :thanks I just found this. https://www.reactos.org/ I wonder if it's worth a try? |

| 1425524 | 2016-09-12 23:57:00 | Yet another Update. Well I found another WebCam and whilst it used USB Video it used a Mic In TRS plug for the Mic. Well that didn’t really work either as if I wound the gain out to 150%, and did a test call to Skype Echo Call Testing service, I can just hear my test message but the Woman that does the test would blow you out of the room. So I guess there is an internal Microphone problem regardless whether the input is USB ot TRS. :confused: |
