Re: How to login as root in Gnome

2006-07-20 Thread Al Puzzuoli 
Hello Christian,

To permanently enable root login to gnome under Debian, edit the 
/etc/gdm/gdm.conf file.
In the [security] section of the file, add the following line:
AllowRoot=True

After doing this, you need to reboot or just restart the gdm for the change 
to take effect.

Hope this helps,

If is same situation like in Ubuntu, you can switch to root by running
"sudo -s" or "sudo YOUR_COMMAND". This after you are logged in.
