You can open console and log in as root and start all programs that need root access from there. IMHO Ubuntu's idea with sudo is not good, as it is enticing users to use short root passwords, which is counter productive. Better root terminal and strong password, then sudo and 3 letter password. -- Regards, Rajko http://en.opensuse.org/Portal needs helpful hands. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
