    Hi all

    I'm new to this os and my acer aspire one so I'm having ALOT of teething problems.

    The first of which being that I can't remember my password. I have only just found out that there is a "root" user and apparently that is not who I have been when I have been using the netbook.

    So when the password window has popped up, conveniently I have forgotten what I chose.

    Is there a way to reset this/retrieve my password that anyone knows of?

    Thanks! :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:
