Hello,
I was surprised to be abble to read root directory as a simple user.
I loged in as simple user and can open see and read the root directory.

:rolleyes:

Every time I reboot my favorite resolution (1152X864) is replaced by 1920X1200. :(

I'm on BT4
I login in root mode.
Try to create and share a new folder.
When I click on "configure File Sharing..."
nothing happens :mad:

Sometimes it's better to be a simple user.
When I login as user, I can run VLC and watch movies.
When I login as root NO :rolleyes:

I used Synaptic Packet Manager to do so.
When I run the vlc player
I tried rebooting but nothing is run when I click to vlc icone :(:(

How do I come back
to the situation before configuring the auto boot ?
