I have a problem to use "su" comment. when I open windowmaker and try to change from general user to super user by type "su" and password in xterm, I receive a "sorry" massage. But I can use "su" comment to change to super user if I exit windowmaker. how can I log to root when I am using windowmaker? Thank you help!
