BUGS: VISUDO PERMISSION NOT WORKING

 

Visudo permissions do not work. I tried to give myself permissions for password-free actions typing sudo visudo in a terminal (e.g. to hibernate using a shortcut (launcher) myusername ALL=NOPASSWD:/usr/sbin/pm-hibernate or myusername ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/srm to make a secure-delete trashcan).

It does not work, the same command and launcher worked in Debian and Puppy but not in Lubuntu.

It works, however, if I already signed in with password in a terminal or Synaptic.

Thanks.
