When starting up my laptop I get 3 choices linux, linkux 2.6 and linux 2.7 these are guess on numbers but I always choose the last one. Is there actually a way to have it not display this screen and load a kernal. LoL sorry for the questions but I'm new to lnux a little still but I love it an can't wait till I know it
When you installed you should have been asked for a root password. So this is the one to use if apps ask for it. If you want to become root from the command line just do this: /bin/su and then you will be asked for your password.

You get an entry for 2.7? I think you mean 2.4 and 2.6. There are no 2.7 kernels yet afaik.
