  1. [ubuntu_mate] System crashes when I plug in external drive

    I tried to report this through the bug reporter, but it would not allow it and told me I had to file it as a program bug, which it is not.

    [ubuntu] Re: Can't get old Windows drive access

    No, it's not. That password works for sudo and other things, but not root. And if you read up, you'll see that Ubuntu keeps the root password secret.

    Anyhow, I finally solved the problem. By...
