Hi. Anyone know of a concise doc or tutorial/info on how to create a new user for Flame, so my other artist can use her hot keys, etc.? I know there’s a Logik Live with Bryan Bailey that might cover it, but it’s over an hour long and we’re in a crunch.
I’m not a Linux pro (still), so looking for some tips
Thanks.
Right click on the settings on the desktop, and there is a graphical interface for adding new users in the user options.
To create a new Linux user with a home directory, set their password, and give them sudo access, follow these steps:
1. Create the user (replace “username” with the name you want):
sudo useradd -m -s /bin/bash username
2. Set the user’s password:
sudo passwd username
3. Add the user to the sudo group:
On Rocky Linux, CentOS, or RHEL:
sudo usermod -aG wheel username
4. Verify sudo access:
su - username
sudo whoami (should return “root”)
Thank you both!
Is there any benefit you’d see from doing one of these processes over the other?
They are literally the same it doesn’t matter.
The best things about Linux is that ChatGPT knows so much about it. It’s super easy to ask LLMs about basic stuff like this so if you’re getting any error messages, you can have it help you out.
The difference is that is hard to screw up, the other one is an opportunity to learn something about Linux. No right or wrong.
Thanks, gents.
Hello,
We added a new Linux user, and get this error message when trying to run Flame. Any thoughts? Permissions issues?
Never mind, just needed a good old reboot…
