Re: very sad.... No more....
What distribution did you end up using for this purpose? See, I'm interested
in a home/family distribution that is very user friendly. I want the user
logons, but I don't want the hassle of having to constantly log into root. "su"
is not good enough, because it doesn't give you a GUI, and that's the only kind
of computer system I'm the least bit interested in using.
