Are you sure you have typed the right password ? No caps lock on ? And what other programs is not working that you mention ? If you really want help you have to be more precise.

@MrKitty


WattOS on livecd has sudo as default... when you install WattOS R8 ... it reverts to su .. you need to open terminal and type gksu-properties and then change su back to sudo and you should be good to go :)
