If you need to login as root into gnome add (or change) 'AllowRoot=true'
in gdm.conf
But the suggested way is to do a xhost + and then do a su and start your

You can configure gdm to allow root login.
As user open xterm
su
root password
gdmconfig
Under options choose Expert and allow root to login with gdm.
