I had hard time choosing which post should I reply  to. Next time think 
3 times before replying to save us and yourself from sending 3 identical 
mails.

root user won't show in the list by default. You cannot even login to 
desktop with root user and it's password via gdm greeter screen. As for 
other stuff I can't say what is the problem. Are you trying to login as 
normal user with UID >= 1000?
