su isn't broken. You have access controls on your X server. Before
you su do "xhost +"

[Cooker] su && pam problems fix
The problem is with the lasest sh-utils the su module in /etc/pam.d is
looking for /etc/pam.d/system-auth, which isn't there(not part of the lasest
pam rpm). Just add a few lines to pam.spec to remedy
this(pam-%{version}/system-auth.pamd).

[Cooker] su: could not open session
After an upgrade last night(NOTE: I really need to make note of the packages that I upgrade during a mass upgrade), I get this error as _root_ when trying to su. As a normal user I get incorrect password and it doesn't even give me a chance to enter a password, just spits out the error. The only thing I could think this is caused from is a pam problem, but I can't validate this. Any clue ? -- Bryan Paxton
