| 587331 | 2007-09-03 06:31:00 | My admin password works but it will not work in a konsole as su. How can I overcome this. |

| 587332 | 2007-09-03 06:38:00 | (K)Ubuntu uses sudo, so by default there isn't a root account. If you create a root account, then you can use su in a terminal window. Why not just use sudo? |

| 587333 | 2007-09-03 06:54:00 | Type 'sudo su', that will do the trick for you. 'sudo bash --login' also works. Don't launch a shell directly with sudo, because your environment variables will be wrong. | Erayd (23) | ||
