RE: Truly stupid menu seting
If you need to login as root into gnome add (or change) 'AllowRoot=true'
in gdm.conf
But the suggested way is to do a xhost + and then do a su and start your
tool.

ON the default woody install, one of the Gnome menu picks is :IDE setup
tool". Trying to run this as a suer results in the message that you need
to be root to run it. Cool.
Trying to login as root using gdm is not allowed.
Can anyone explain what the **k somebody was thinking when tehy set this
up!
