Its weird: I can login on concole as root, su on console, start X as root,
but when I try to su in xterm or gnome-term I get 'File size limit
exceeded' and nothing happens. 

Scripts like rpmdrake cant be run as non-root because they fail to su as
well.

It may be caused by the fact I use XFS as filesystem for Linux. I have
ReiserFS at home and have different problems. 
I have tried to upgrade kernel to 2.4.16-enterprise but it failed. I
had to set up a lilo entry manually but havent rebooted since then.

BTW: in 8.1 I had to install the acl package amnually although all my
Linux filesystems are XFS.
