Did you have your sudo pre-configured? Mine does not work; my user was not a sudoer. When I went to add david ALL=ALL (so I don't need to type the pass-word every time), it now says $ sudo apt-get update
sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0666, should be 0440.

Is there some thing else I can do to rectify this problem? Perhaps allow the root to access the X server?
