I'm new to KDE, installed plasma 5 yesterday. I have several issues with user accounts.
1) Where can i find user management in system settings? I see it was there in plasma 4 but can't find it anywhere here. So, how to manage user accounts? 2) I can't install new software via konsole. Whenever I try I get this:
It doesn't let me login as root, so I can't do it that way either. After looking on the internet I didn't find anything useful. I downloaded KUser, which only worked sometimes, ticked SUDO in my account groups, nothing happened. Still the same message. However, I downloaded and installed google chrome with apper installer without any problems. Can anyone help? |

If the root account is deactivated ("passwd -l root") and you've no user with sudo rights, you locked yourself out of the system (admin wise) - the most simple way out is to boot into single user mode (append "1" to the kernel parameters in grub, this will enter runlevel 1, ie. a root shell)
Then either re-activate root or grant your user sudo privilegues ("visudo") If you've NOT actually deactivated the root account, you can still change to root by running "su" and entering the root password (whether you can login as root or not doesn't matter then) Welcome to Unix systems |
