After trying 'groups', it says i'm in the groups "wheel audio users". I have logged in and rebooted many times since it broke. It is very weird because it used to work fine.

I am running gentoo linux. After doing emerge -uD world, i can not su into the root account anymore. My user account is in the wheel group but it still doesn't work. su gives me the message "You are not authorized to su root". I used to have the pam use flag set but I removed it and stopped using pam, I don't believe this broke anything else, and I am not shure if this would be a factor anyways. Can anyone help?


As your own user, run the command `groups` to verify that your addition
to the wheel group took effect. It might be that you haven't logged back
in (all the back way from the tty) since the change was made. A user's
groups are determined when they originally log in.
