Is your user in the group wheel and is wheel activated to use sudo (see /etc/sudoers with roots right) ? That looks OK. Tried creating a newer user, same problem. Interestingly I installed Lubuntu on ye olde laptop using the minimal install method and got the same problem. I have now done a new install on the original machine and all looks good so far. I don’t think this is worth worrying about too much at this point in the cycle. Unless others have the same problem. -- Steve Cook (Yorvyk) http://lubuntu.net ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
