    How do I open my Kubuntu 13.04 OS in 'Root'?

    I realize this is something Kubuntu apparently doesn't want users to know, however, doesn't that kind of defeat the 'Freedom' aspect that is so precious to Linux users.

    I was able to do this in past distributions of Kubuntu, but have not had the need in such a long time, I have forgotten how to do it. I expect it will probably be a long time again before I will need to know again, but I need the capability right now. I realize the dangers involved and accept totall responsibility for any damage or loss incurred by logging into Root User. I have most of those selfsame dangers when I open in sudo.

    If some Guru with a kind heart will private message the solution, I would be extremely grateful. That way the secret remains generally kept. Thanks!

    I am not posting the answer, because Kubuntu apparently does not want this information generally available. I love my Kubuntu OS and do not want to create any waves.

      It is okay to post 'how' to do it. It isn't secret. See RootSudo
