On this day in 1859, Oregon became the US's 33rd state, the result of the Vote at Champoeg, in which two Canadians wanted dead or alive tipped the vote from 49/50 to 51/50 in favor of becoming a US state instead of a Canadian province. Retrospectively, this is considered the worst thing to happen to Oregon as it leaves the international boundary on the wrong side of the state, something that has left us completely defenseless against political and migratory abuse by California (everybody stop moving here, Oregon's full now, not that anybody was welcome to begin with). > However, once installed, the system goes directly into a login > screen from which I cannot login into root.

If you have to run something graphical as root, as a normal user type xhost +local:localhost, then run the command as root using su. Don't log in as root. -- .''`.
