I think the command should be:
:w !su root -c "tee eval.txt >/dev/null"

Using su might still causes some trouble, therefore I do not recommend 
to use it. Part of the problem is, that when su asks for the password 
you have to set shellredir correctly or it might look like vim is 
hanging, although it only waits for input.

You might try to use SudoEdit.vim which can be found at 
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2709

It tries hard to avoid the su trouble and you can configure it to use 
any authentication tool you like.


Mit freundlichen Grüßen
