1. Start the Gnome-Terminal. You get 'user@host:~> ' . 2. Type 'su' , then you get the call to give your root password. 3. I type my root password, which I use as superuser (fixed by installing Ubuntu-system as root and log in to the operating system Ubuntu!). 4. I get the alert: 'Error with authenticity'(of the user, in German: 'Fehler bei der Authentifizierung').
I tried it with the order 'sudo su'. Here I get the entry as root (superuser 'root@host:~> ')! But 'sudo' is an order for only a time limit (or helps 'sudo -v su'?). A little circumstantial. In earlier versions of Ubuntu like the Ubuntu-version 12.04 LTS and also Suse Linux you need only the order 'su' and your root-password for entering as superuser for unlimited time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1282597 Title: Ubuntu 13.10: Gnome-Terminal log in as su fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-docs/+bug/1282597/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
