The reason for asking to check the /etc/hosts file was due to this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/sudo/+bug/32906
[ sudo fails if it cannot resolve the local hostname and no MTA is
installed]

So I thought that may have been the issue. On second thought; can you go
ahead and:

gksu gedit /etc/hosts

and change the following lines to:

127.0.0.1 localhost bill-desktop
127.0.1.1 bill-desktop

save the file. Then reboot.

Qeustions: were you able to 'sudo' previously, and if so what have you
changed since then - updates, new packages/programs/network configs, etc.
