Title:
  root password changed system inept

Status in “seahorse” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  This bug takes user , in my case , ronron was the administrator user,
  my name was Ron , root now is owned by ronronRonron , password  ( ? )
  In the past I used "ron " the bug simply added a ron to make ronron .
  Time-outs ? Dialing in part of a password & timing out ? It all
  festers in .gvfs ,/etc/ user/shared/orbit sometimes /tmp/tmp added ,
  but not this time  , from my wired net , hitching a ride in on a
  ligament download , turning the OS against itself . ( you don't own it
  , permission denied ) No package manager , no net manager .  This BUG
  keeps changing , each time I reinstall , I'm not that computer
  literate enough to get ahead of it . I regroup format reinstall & I'm
  facing a new version . This BUG does not like " snort " I can download
  it , but wont let it install completely . gufw & ufw status enabled
  but it's not , no logs no intrusion warning . Firestarter tells me I'm
  being probed & has blocked many . 80 , 8080 , 22 , 443 is wide open ,
  if I close-off 443 NO NET . My address is 10.202.46.1/3 , in whois
  today said it was 66.205.144.72 . Host has been 66.60.130.2 with a .6
  for search , today 66.185.138.245 , there's a dial out installed to
  214-748-3647 in my users and groups . The first thing shutdown is
  updates & downloads next to falter is permissions . That's the
  starting of the end . Ubuntu 10.4 is great love-it , I think , I'm
  reasonable sure my 64 bit is being turned to 32 and vise-versa . I'm
  not going to mark vulnerability , you folks do that , I'll say this ,
  this install of 10.4 was buggy on the install 4 days ago , so I loaded
  10.10 on a usb drive , losing control of it with in hours . Back on
  this 10.4 . Stayed off net & tried to delete , nousregroup , proxy ,
  nopasswordlogin , & other stuff . .gvfs in hidden wasn't used in this
  bug version but /tmp/orbit - x 7 or 8 or more different long strings >
  whatis  ( nothing appropriate ) is evident . This 3 1/2 or 4 days is a
  record , alas not much longer . when I reboot grub will be missing . I
  think this bug let me get part of my IPTables loaded & enabled , I
  feel like a Guinea pig or lab-rat some times . One of the reasons I'm
  still here is I have a group open in users & groups I can't change
  anything & they ...I mean this bug can't finish me off . Are we having
  fun yet . Long live our Republic , thank God for Linux .
