Some people don’t like things that are well made and organized in a sensible manner?

Like 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.

As 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.

You can modify the settings to get passwordless sudo.

Of course you can. My point is, it’s a ridiculous decision on OpenSUSE’s part to ship it this way in the first place.

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
