You really shouldn't do that - one of the features in OpenSolaris
2008.05 was to make root into a role, rather than a real user account.
During the install, the user you created has been given equivalent root
powers, via RBAC. ( in my case, that's a line in /etc/user_attr that
reads
timf::::profiles=Primary Administrator;roles=root
)
Better would be to ask why you want to login to a gui as root?
Personally, I created another local user, called "admin" and gave that
user the ability to use the root role, so if I broke something in my own
user/desktop configuration, I'd still have a local user I'd be able to
login and fix things with.
cheers,
