From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Are you trying the terminal commands with
sudo? You could also try logging in asrootuser with the password you used during setup.Yeah I already tried sudo root via terminal but when I entered the password It said I don't have permision to do that. I can't even change my password to something new in desktop. But I can try setup login once I'm back home.
Did you try
su -l?Yeah man I tried. But I don't have permision even tho I entered the right password.
You can reinstall the OS without overwriting your home partition or any other data partition. That's always an option.
