Hisome days before, I had a problem about using the "beep" function..... working around, to solve my problem, I got the suggestion to register myself in the "audio group" ..I made it using these commands:sudo adduser <my_name> audio
This should have given a usage error:
Usage: adduser [options] LOGIN
adduser -D
adduser -D [options]and also :sudo usernod -G audio <my_name>
I assume this was "sudo usermod -G audio <my_name>". This will replace the list of
supplementary groups with just "audio", which will remove sudo privileges. You need
"--append" (or "-a") to append "audio" to the supplementary groups.
What did you use for <my_name>? You seem to have two user names:
"angelo_user" and "angelo_dev".
Actually (after this) I no longer have (I lose the) sudo privileges (I think, in consequence of these actions).As well my name still appears inside the /etc/sudoers/ file..,
## Allow root to run any commands anywhere
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
angelo_user ALL=(ALL) ALL
(but i am not anymore in the wheel group)
If you no longer have a login with sudo privileges you will need to boot
another system (e.g., a live distro from a USB key) to
When i try to use the sudo privileges, I get the message :<"angelo_dev is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.">
Check the list of groups for "id", "id angelo_dev" and "id anglo_user".
In conclusion :
- I am still registered in the /etc/sudoers file
- I am not anymore registered in the wheel group.
I think it could be enough to register me in the "wheel" group again, in order to still get the sudo privileges, but I am not completely sure about this :....because to be registered in /etc/sudoers is not enough ??...(how it works the management of sudo privileges ? )
You should not need to be in the wheel group if your username is in "/etc/sudoers".
