Thanks for reporting this issue and helping to make Ubuntu better. adept is called via the kdesudo and therefore does not ask for a root password but your user password that would authenticate you against the sudoers list.
Could you please give us the exact commands you give when you are able to use your password in commandline. (Obviously please do *not* paste your password here, only the commands you use on the commandline terminal) Thanks ** Changed in: adept (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Ralph Janke (txwikinger) Status: New => Incomplete -- Adept not accepting root password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243721 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
