[Solved ] Commands doesn't work at text interface
I'm sorry about the vague title line but I don't really know the words to describe this. So here's a screenshot:

It suddenly kinda blew up last night and I haven't really used it since.
Anyway, I've been using Arch on a VM Software(Virtual Box) and been using lxdm as my graphical interface.
I don't really know how to describe it to you guys more specifically.

What is sudoers doing in your root directory?

Re: [Solved ] Commands doesn't work at text interface
I think it's not in my root directory. I'm in my ~ directory anyway.
If it is in my root directory, I have no idea how it got there.

Yeah: your /home. In any event, it shouldn't be there: look through your shell history to see what you have done...

Re: [Solved ] Commands doesn't work at text interface
So far I haven't seen anything unusual.
Only removed db.lck, pacman -Syu, initiated lxdm, and repeat.
Nothing pointed it to being in there anyway.

Re: [Solved ] Commands doesn't work at text interface
Have you looked through root's shell history? It had to get there somehow...

Re: [Solved ] Commands doesn't work at text interface
Did "nano ~/.bash_history" and found no trace of sudoers.
First time I used sudo was me installing code::blocks on my machine.
I logged into my non-root account and search the bash_history there
and what I found was my recent activities where I just keep downloading manga series

That isn't root's history...

Re: [Solved ] Commands doesn't work at text interface
" less /root/.bash_history" procured nothing either. I suppose I'll have to reinstall arch .
