Hi Gene!
You are the same Gene from over at the linuxcnc mailing list?
Did you install TDE on LinuxCNC?

No, Gene, it isn't. You installed that cnc or something special version.

And what is with the old one I posted a screenshot of?
I think that that is basically an Ubuntu programme. Perhaps it uis in
Synaptic, if it is no longet there by default.
Lisi The password for "admin", eg root,
tasks does not accept the users sudo
password, asking for the (root? it doesn't say) password in a forever loop.
This is a bug. I suspect its TDE wide in effect. And should be filed.
No, it isn't a bug. Just set up a root password. Most of us using Debian
(not all, I agree) have one. Google "ubuntu set root password".
I can generally hack around it with a sudo -i
session of geany, (never
gedit as it can trash, BTDT, several times, your whole system,) but find
that it also does not work because the root acquired in that manner cannot
run any graphical interfaces since the X session is the users. So an
immortal root session to get several things done, is turned into an
individual sudo name_of_command.
That can be a right PITA, even for a user whose first linux install was Red
Hat 5.0 in 1998.
There was at one time a workaround which consisted of actually starting
another X session for root, a bad practice IMO, and I've long since
forgotten how to do it. 80 yo wet ram problems. Yeah, old coot at the
wheel here.
Just set up a root password! And do remember, because it seems often to be
relevant, you have NOT got a default Wheezy install. (You had issues with
that, remember? You found a one person bug!!)
