I recently upgraded my system to Redhat 7.2 and discovered something
truly horrible about the new help browser. When run as a normal
user, it behaves normally. When run as root, it pops up some
browser called nautilus and then STARTS A NEW WINDOW MANAGER!
Try it yourself:
1) run your usual X environment (I use fvwm)
2) in a command window (e.g. xterm), type "su"
3) as root in this new window, type "balsa &"
(or any other gnome application you want)
4) select any item from the help window.
There will be a pause and then a new desktop will start up on
top of the one you were running.
