I opened the terminal and used the following line:<br /><br />sudo leafpad /usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/misc.py<br /><br />This time I could save the edited file.New Hillockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00429799409919399201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938940963299249305.post-63711184330796845712012-12-29T01:04:25.960-05:002012-12-29T01:04:25.960-05:00sudo su then what?
