Sorry - missed it. By the way, the fact that I missed it is probably an
indication that we shoudl make it more prominent - many users who ask about root
password do not even know what sudo is, so it would never occur to them to look
for the answer under "how do I use Sudo".

I'd suggest changing the title to something like "How do I find the root
password? What is sudo?"

As far as the last topic (fixing messed up GNOME config): sometimes they manage
to mess it up so badly (e.g., no panel at all) that it is difficult to fix by
GUI tools. I've answered this kind of questions several times in the forums. 

Of course, if we do decide to put it in, it should be "First try to fix using
GUI tools. If that fails, as the last resort you can erase all you GNOME
configuration...."
