Does anyone know how i can give myself root permissions on my linux box.
bec i have used Yast and put me in the root users group but it does not give me the permissions
You don't want to do that... it is a big security hole! You can su to root from either the user command line or an xterm and do what every you wish. When you are done 'exit' will close the root 'window' and you are back to being just a user again. Running with root permission will lead to disaster because you will get causal and careless and destroy your system. You only want to be in root to do *specific* things, then exit back to a user. If you ever link to the internet as root you are asking for a world of hurt.
