I really should reinstall an email client, it's always hard to get it nicely readable from the web client. Sorry guys....
All the letters, number and special characters used in my password are the same between the US and the UK keyboard so it would make no difference if the window is seeing the default setting or what I changed it to.
I didn't set up a separate root password to my admin user one. But I tried both mine and the default admin/root password as per the AVL manual and nether worked. (In truth I don't think I would ever use anything
there as it's mostly update things I would do from the terminal I just happened to come across it as the button looked the same as the main Settings button.)
Regards, Dale.

Sometimes it's even intended that an app does use another keymap. I'm using the English language for everything computer related, excepted of a German keyboard. If I use a calculator, I expect the calculator fixes the "," of the German num pad. The "," on the num pad should become a ".", the "," and "." on the other part of the keyboard should remain unchanged. Some good Linux calculators are doing this, a lot of calculators that belong to a desktop environment, don't do this. When using Ubuntu flavour Live DVDs I often experience that while using a terminal, for obviously no reason, the de keyboard layout gets changed to the us keyboard layout. IOW within the same window, while typing, the keyboard layout changes from one line to the next line. Do the GUIs ask for the root or user password? On my installs "su" as well as "sudo" grant root privileges, but for "su" another password is used, than for "sudo" (at least without an option to change the user ;). Graphical apps could use gksu, gksudo or similar. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user |
