Seesh... I know all the issues with doing this as root. However, I am trying to sort out a very long standing issue wherein the desktop renders properly for root, but not for any other user. Unreadable black text on a black background in panels, pop-up windows, etc. It is not a 'make it pretty' issue. It is a 'make is possible to use' issue that has now reached a head. It happens on a number of machines here (different hardware) - and I have no clue why. It is really odd in that we seem to be the only ones in the world with the issue. Which I find soo odd in that different people have done the installs from different media in different cities on different hardware. But the problem occurs most of the time. I want to test a theory as to what might be different between root and others. (Permissions have been explored to death - no joy.) But I need to log in graphically as root to test it. Perhaps trwing xdm just to get the login may help.
