Question #49860 on Ubuntu Eee changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-eee/+question/49860
Status: Answered => Open Jan van der Sluis / NL is still having a problem: Thanks for this answer. But I beginning to think I started off on the wrong foot. When doubleclicking on the icon for the SDcard (8Gb btw) Eeepc returned the message that I don't have permission to mount. But yesterday I did nothing and the Eeepc eventually returned a message that there seems a connection problem (something with bd of db? Sorry). Now I think there might be something wrong with the SDcard itself? I did get a root password by the way. But for this Eeepc I would like to have asituation in which there is no password whatsoever needed. This Eeepc is being used as a sort of referral book on the coffeetable ;-). Easy loging and easy use is important in that situation.
