minus-squareRogerWilco@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoLike sudo requiring you to use the root password? Isn’t one of the principal reasons sudo exists is so you DONT need to know or use the root password to perform root-level tasks? It’s an idiotic choice on OpenSUSE’s part IMO.
minus-squaregian linkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoAs far as I remember, sudo ask for the user password, not the root one. It is “su -c [some_command]” that ask for the root password.

minus-squaresuperkret@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoDon’t get me wrong, it’s a great system, but it’s overengineered like a German car. What bugs me the most is that many of the YaST tools duplicate KDE’s own so you have several GUI tools installed that roughly change the same settings.
