I just learned I can not login as root on one of my systems (upgraded 9.1). I can login as root on the other upgraded 9.1. One thing I noticed is that the kdm login screen says SUSE Linux 9.0.
That's really weird. They didn't change that until 9.1. In 9.0 it was still SuSE
1. How do I tell which version of SUSE I'm running?
cat /etc/SuSE-release but you may have a half/half system, with packages not upgraded. Try rpm -qa --qf "%{Name} %{Distribution}\n" |grep -v 9.1
2. Are there log messages or commands that would give me a clue why I can't login? 3. Anyone know how to fix this?
It's not broken. The default in 9.1 is to not allow root to log in graphically through kdm. If you *really* must, then change it in yast's security settings. But you never *really* must
