Leave the root password blank and you will get root permissions on your user account if you fill in root you mite have to su (Switch shell to another user) I.E> root
Learnt from Chris Titus Tech (old video) Installing Linux The Right Way(Debian 11) watch the way you had to get the ISO to download how things have move on??

You can add user in sudoers file.

[@docdaven]

how did you get into users from the desktop? I see everything in Settings, except user stuff

[@SwitchedtoLinux]

It should be one of the options in settings in Gnome. Try searching for users in the search bar at the top.

[@paolomarini_eu]

hey Tom, wishing you a well of fortune. quick note: your support page link gives a 404

[@SwitchedtoLinux]

Thanks, I will add that to the list of fixes. The correct link is:

[@jeetroy6164]

While installing sudo its showing dpkg was interrupted run manually to correct the problem

[@Bruces-Eclectic-World]

Dude, this is a dollar sign $ and this is a pound sign, #... 🤣
Nice way to do that. I was waiting for you to edit the sudors file... Lol
Wish I could think of things to do after installing. My mind is blank like "Bland Reg".. 🤔 Hahahaha.
Sorry I missed the last two shows, Life is pain. Could you have TG swing by and pick me up on Venus, I need to leave "Bruce 1" for its 1 million light year service and I need a lift back to the Moon... Thanks! 😆
LLAP 🖖

[@SwitchedtoLinux]

Ill be there.

[@Thee_Squatch]

Maybe a noob question but, Is there a keyboard shortcut to terminal emulator? Searched the webs and nothing works. OR can I add a custom keyboard shortcut to do this?

[@SwitchedtoLinux]

Terminal shortcuts are dependent on the desktop environment. In Cinnamon and I think in Gnome, Ctl+alt+T gets you a terminal window.

[@patrickfeeney180]

I keep getting usermod command not found?

[@patrickfeeney180]

I think usermod is a file that needed downloading
How i got my 'user' sudo priv was going into the sudoers file as root with nano and editing it to give me sudo priv

[@thanhlephuong7687]

Oh it is simple i never pay attention before.

[@YasirArafat-vt9rf]

Whole youtube only one video to add user sudo group exilent

[@SB-qm5wg]

if I self-host I don't care about sudo unless it's got a desktop.

[@ericguillen9280]

[@user-md2iq9vb9z]

[@911blackadder]

Thabk you!
