I'm not sure :-( Here's the only log got: Jun 7 09:27:31 caradoc su[8778]: Successful su for drow by root Jun 7 09:27:31 caradoc su[8778]: + ??? root:drow Jun 7 09:27:31 caradoc su[8778]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened for user drow by (uid=0) Jun 7 09:27:31 caradoc su[8778]: pam_unix(su:session): session closed for user drow Jun 7 09:27:32 caradoc su[9350]: Successful su for drow by root Jun 7 09:27:32 caradoc su[9350]: + ??? root:drow Jun 7 09:27:32 caradoc su[9350]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened for user drow by (uid=0) Jun 7 09:27:32 caradoc su[9350]: pam_unix(su:session): session closed for user drow Jun 7 09:27:32 caradoc su[9407]: Successful su for drow by root Jun 7 09:27:32 caradoc su[9407]: + ??? root:drow Jun 7 09:27:32 caradoc su[9407]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened for user drow by (uid=0) Jun 7 09:27:32 caradoc su[9407]: pam_unix(su:session): session closed for user drow Jun 7 09:27:33 caradoc su[10006]: Successful su for drow by root Jun 7 09:27:33 caradoc su[10006]: + ??? root:drow Jun 7 09:27:33 caradoc su[10006]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened for user drow by (uid=0) Jun 7 09:27:33 caradoc su[10006]: pam_unix(su:session): session closed for user drow Jun 7 09:27:33 caradoc su[10064]: Successful su for drow by root Jun 7 09:27:33 caradoc su[10064]: + ??? root:drow Jun 7 09:27:33 caradoc su[10064]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened for user drow by (uid=0) Jun 7 09:27:33 caradoc su[10064]: pam_unix(su:session): session closed for user drow And so on, until I figured out what was running. There was also this error, but fixing it by installing acpid didn't help with the su logs: Jun 7 09:49:50 caradoc atieventsd[21315]: ATI External Events Daemon started...
