[Trisquel-users] Trisquel 8: Not able to format USD or SD cards. synaptic package manager fails. Unable to set time and date

[wilnav]

Hi all,

I am simple user. With Trisquel 7 I had no problem with formatting Drives, SD  
cards, USB drives. Not trouble using Synaptic, or setting time and date. In  
particular setting time and date won't let me unlock. The lock/unlock icon  
isn't active. All of the above I accessed graphically. I'm not good at the  
command line. I can follow directions though. Any help along these lines will  
be appreciated.

kind regards,
william
