"You are not authorized to run Rigo" [Solved]

[senorsmile]

As of today, I can't open Rigo nor su to root on the terminal. I can still open a new TTY (e.g. TTY1) by pressing CTRL+ALT+F1 and log in directly as root, so I haven't forgotten the password. If I try sudo su, I get "Not in sudoers".

This just started happening today. Last week I was able to sudo su or su, and open rigo just fine.

Edit:

To fix, ensure your user is in the group entropy.

[sabayonino]

edit /etc/sudoers configuration file

Code: Select all

$ su
passwd :   # root password
# nano -w /etc/sudoers

#Allow "users" group to run sudo

Code: Select all

%users        ALL=(ALL) ALL

save and exit

Code: Select all

$ rigo

[senorsmile]

edit /etc/sudoers configuration file

Code: Select all

$ su
passwd :   # root password
# nano -w /etc/sudoers

#Allow "users" group to run sudo

Code: Select all

%users        ALL=(ALL) ALL

save and exit

Code: Select all

$ rigo

I could add that, (I prefer to use visudo in case I screw something up), but my user "shaun" is not even a part of the group "users".

I added my user "shaun" to wheel group and saw that the line in /etc/sudoers to allow wheel group to execute sudo commands was already uncommented. I can now sudo su but still cannot
1. type su then root password from GUI
2. open rigo as user.

/etc/sudoers:

Code: Select all

root    ALL=(ALL) ALL

# Uncomment to allow people in group wheel to run all commands
# %wheel        ALL=(ALL) ALL

# Same thing without a password
#%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

# Samples
# %users  ALL=/sbin/mount /cdrom,/sbin/umount /cdrom
# %users  localhost=/sbin/shutdown -h now

#Added by Sabayon Installer
%wheel  ALL=ALL

you can't run "su" from GUI

use"sudo" "kdesu" or "gksu" !

Ah, I was sure before that I could open a terminal and simply type "su" to gain root access, like in other distro's.

However, I still have the problem of not being able to open Rigo, which I suspect is somehow related.

You don't understand ...

example : if you want run Dolphin (KDE file manager) as root :

Code: Select all

$ kdesu dolphin

Code: Select all

$ sudo dolphin

not

Code: Select all

$ su
Password
# dolphin

or in KDE press ALT+F2 and type "kdesu dolphin"

Ah, yes, I don't want to run a GUI application from a root prompt. I simply want to enter root to do simple administrative tasks from a terminal. I can sudo su fine now, so that's not an issue.

My major issue is that suddenly I cannot open rigo, whereas for the last several weeks I have been able to. I assume since no one else has posted similar issues that this only affects me. I can open rigo from a terminal or Alt+F2

Code: Select all

gksu rigo

, but I don't believe you should have to do that.

un rio as user.

when youre gonna instala a package it will ask aroot password

That's the whole reason for this post. If I run Rigo as user I get: "You are not authorized to run Rigo".
