Yes, but for consistency I gave him both versions using "su" or "sux".
To be sure, its not the ONLY way. I've developed docs and find that
using:
"sudo -i" for cli needs or "sudo sux -" for X needs
Is far more confusing than:
"sudo su -" for cli needs and "sudo sux -" for X needs
It is just easier for "Helpdesk" people to use the second way... less to
remember, I've even simplified that showing only "sudo sux -"
6 or half-dozen.
