I'm trying to install Qemulator. I launch setup.py and answer the
questions about the installation. If finally requires a SUDO password
and won't accept my SU password.
I've searched the Forums and can't find a remedy.
What do I need to do?
Thanks, Kirk Ziegler

Sudo is not set up by default in Fedora, try su -c instead of sudo.

But the way to edit the file safely is not. Type visudo in terminal to
do that. It launches vi editor and prevents simultaneous edits of the
file.
