I did a frugal install the other day and now I want to actually start installing software.

The problem I am seeing is:  I can't install because it asks for the SU or root.

I don't recall being asked to setup the SU or Root?   Can someone point me into the right direction here.

I appreicate it.

Thanks

sorry everyone... I did some digging in the forum and found this

Open an xterminal and type:

sudo su
passwd


and then enter a new password

PLease forgive me for wasting your time.
