I have installed Debian 10 on Dell Inspiron with an AMD processor. I am using the KDE Plasma desktop. When I try
sudo dpkg -i ./palemoon_28.6.1+repack-2_amd64.deb
I get
[sudo] password for peter:
peter is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
I logged in as root and entered
/usr/sbin/adduser peter
This returned
adduser: The user `peter' already exists.
I then tried the following as root
chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers
When I try to sudo, in the peter account, I still get
peter is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
I then try the following as root
sudo usermod -aG sudo,adm peter
Still get the same reslt when I try to sudo from the peter account.
Opening a new terminal, for the peter account, does not change anything.
