Are you still in the wheel group?

I just ran 'emerge -u world' for the first time in about three weeks, and ran dispatch-conf to update my config files. Now, when I try to su to root, I always get permission denied. I'm certain that I'm typing the password, but to be safe, I have reset the password twice now with no luck. The user is in the wheel group. I believe that their was a PAM config file that was updated, but I assumed that since I hadn't changed the old one, it would be safe to replace it with the new one.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Yup. As I said, I'm in the wheel group.

uid=1000(mike) gid=100(users) groups=100(users),5(tty),10(wheel),18(audio)

I've checked through the pam config files, but I don't see any obvious problems. I'm not to familiar with PAM, though, so I might not be spotting the problem. There is no /etc/security/suauth.allow, so that's not the problem.
