How do I give a user the ability to be do sudo?
I saw that the function sudo is implemented in Mageia 3Beta 2.
But when I try to do a sudo-command (like debian-linux) I will be asked for a password and when given that I been told that I'm
not a member of sudoers.
What to do? And howto do?

There are two wiki pages:

https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Sudo_in_Mageia
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Configuring_sudo

(It is usually recommended to use visudo to edit the sudoers file.)
