By default, the ‘pi’ user is set up with passwordless sudo access. We are no longer assuming this to be the case, so now desktop applications which require sudo access will prompt for the password rather than simply failing to work if a user without passwordless sudo uses them.<span style="font-size:large">"</span></p><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto"><span style="color:rgb(87,87,87);font-size:85%">Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.</span><br></div><div class="elided-text" dir="auto"><div><br></div><div style="font-size:100%;color:#000000"><div>-------- Original message --------</div><div>From: Adam Holt <<a href="mailto:holt@laptop.org" target="_blank">holt@laptop.org</a>> </div><div>Date: 8/19/17 12:46 PM (GMT-05:00) </div><div>To: xsce-devel <<a href="mailto:xsce-devel@googlegroups.com" target="_blank">xsce-devel@googlegroups.com</a>>, server-devel <<a href="mailto:server-devel@lists.laptop.org" target="_blank">server-devel@lists.laptop.org</a><wbr>> </div><div>Subject: [XSCE] Raspbian Stretch Released </div><div><br></div></div><div>Tim does this help Captive Portal implementation?<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">In any case, this is a major change from the underlying Debian 8.x to Debian 9.x. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Raspbian "Pixel" appears to have been renamed "<span style="background-color:rgb(230,226,221);color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:roboto,sans-serif;font-size:18px;text-align:center;text-transform:uppercase">WITH DESKTOP</span>" to avoid confusion.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Raspbian "<span style="background-color:rgb(230,226,221);color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:roboto,sans-serif;font-size:18px;text-align:center;text-transform:uppercase">LITE</span>" retains that name (no X Windows desktop).</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Release notes:<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><pre style="word-wrap:break-word;white-space:pre-wrap">2017-08-16:
