need the root password
Asked by
Rich.b
As I installed this operating system (Ubuntu12.04) on this Dell 2400 Dimension PC.
Please could someone tell me why if I am updating Ubuntu and I am asked to enter my password ALL updating works well, but if I
type "su" (without "") in terminal and am asked for password it says:-
richard@
Password:
su: Authentication failure

Thanks for any help
Richard
