translate that into non-geek, or old-fart-forgetting/systemd-changes-everything-speak would you?

Thank you! I knew I'd read something about it, but forgot where.
It worked, and bluetooth works after following instructions on the same wiki page.
a couple of oddities still.
for one, ping is refused unless I run it as sudo,
ping: socket: Operation not permitted
and I still have no idea how to create a true root user instead of relying on sudo.
This was always part of the initial install of debian.
Thanks for all the hard work y'all!
ping uses raw sockets so it needs either have cap_net_raw enabled (see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Capabilities for instance) or setuid root (https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions...permission)
The root user is already created, it is a regular root user, but it doesn't have password. If you want to enable password for the root user you just need:
Code:
sudo passwd
It will ask your password first (for sudo), then the root password that you want twice.
I still prefer use sudo, you can have a full root login shell using sudo -i
My 2 cents
