My last GNU/Linux configuration last to much time to be of help, Gentoo at that time.
The way described by a user was using the "sudo" method, to my experience not all distributions have or allow that method to acquire root user rights. Some need to loin as user "root".
I was curious, are/were? Vlado Iresch and Tom Barnz lovers, or just business partners. I wonder if someone will ever write a book on VI, as he seems quite the industry recluse, like Paul Morris.
He's down 38% on the iMdb popularity scale this week.

I doubt that made much sense! It's years since I've spoken German and it's very rusty. My spelling is probably awful too!
