[Bug 552305] Re: 10.04 ubuntu not in mythtv group

 

Ah.  So our goal is to get rid of the need for exposing the password to
the user (by more prevalent usage of the PIN # instead).  So i'm gonna
mark this as won't fix since it's something we are trying to get away
from supporting.

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Won't Fix

Bug description:
When booting into the Live CD Frontend of mythbuntu 10.04 mythfrontend cannot be executed without first adding the user to the mythtv group. This is done automatically. However, a log-out is needed to solidify the group change. This is problematic because the "ubuntu" user's password is unknown. Before logging out the password needs to be changed to something that the user knows via 'sudo passwd' or by disabling the password prompt at login using the gui users and groups application.
