As has been pointed out, it's rarely necessary. There's one area where I a graphical root user is useful, mass file managing where you can't use wild cards to do the job. But you don't need to log in graphically as root to do these things. Find a decent file manager, not Nautilus, then just start it off from the command line. -- [...@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
