If you add "universe" to your repositories you can get about anything Debian has to offer which is 10,000+ applications. As far as root. Ubuntu has root. I use it regularly. The idea is if you don't know how to set a root password for root, you should probably only use sudo. I think that is pretty solid advice and that Ubuntu is doing end users a favor by setting the default in this manner. -Derek --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
