Hi,
I just installed Ubuntu touch on my Nexus 4 in dual boot. I like the desing and the functionnalities but i'd like to know how to become root, to access more administration tools. I'm a current user of Ubuntu 15.04 desktop version but you can't log in the same way. Could someone help me ?
Use sudo. Or be more specific with your problem. Use askubuntu to find solutions for the activation of write access and so on.
Ok, Thank you for explanation, In fact if try to log by entering "sudo apt-get install" I get :[COLOR=#111111][FONT=Consolas]
[/FONT][/COLOR]W: Not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock E: Unable to write to /var/cache/apt/ E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
What's wrong ?
