You seem to be missing the point that I'm talking about a home box where you're the only person using it.

Using sudo when you have the root password just seems silly to me. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
