[01:27] I have a destop version of Kubuntu, and I have a password ass administrator. But I think I lack a root password. How do I make a root password? [01:28] You don't. [01:28] !root [01:28] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [01:30] that is just great, but if I can't make a root password; I can't use mysql. thank you [01:31] 1st account created is that root administrator, so use 'sudo ' === rudra_ is now known as rudra === himcesjf_ is now known as himcesjf === jemandus is now known as Jemand === digs is now known as Guest82927 === rumble is now known as grumble [09:57] Hey folks === himcesjf_ is now known as himcesjf [11:18] hey :) [11:19] hey john85 [11:19] hows u?

[11:19] good thanks [11:20] we don't use textspeak on irc support channels, it's discouraged [11:21] Hi guys, is there a program that detects network disconnections accurately? [11:22] are you reffering to my use of "u"? [11:23] hay207, you can check in /var/log/syslog, but I'm not sure what you mean [11:23] john85, yes [11:23] soz [11:24] couldnt resist..sorry [11:24] for ex, sometimes my net disconnects while playing a game, and no notification appears [11:25] heh, dunno what soz means anyway [11:26] soz = sorry, could be one I just made up though [11:27] hay207, sometimes it's the server that disconnects ...happens to my wife on LOTRO quite often, but mostly it's the server's fault [11:28] No, if server dc'ed, all players get dc'ed [11:29] It's only me who's network disconnects [11:30] are you sure ? [11:30] Yes [11:31] then the logs should show what happebed [11:31] happened [11:32] scuse my phat phinger spelling [11:33] :) [11:33] Ok, i will monitor the logs then [11:41] is there a way of aligning widgets on desktop without having to do it by eye?
