It can when you install your video drivers.

The password to su should be the same as your user password. Root is disabled by default so instead to changing to root, just sue sudo and provide your own login password.

The root password used by su isn't set in ubuntu. Instead it uses sudo which requires your password instead.

eg.

sudo apt-get install build-essential

edit: Beaten to it
