Didn't see the root account message. Not sure how you would resolve that one (could experiment with the permissions on the directory - try 750 or 700), but I think if you're worried about security, it's never a wise idea to log in to an X session as root. Is there some particular reason that you have to do this (presumably regularly) instead of using su or sudo to access root privileges from a non-privileged account?
