After I exit from X windows, I no longer have the ability to su (to root, at least). It doesn't even ask for my password - it just immediately says "bad su from myacct to root". If I then "exit", and immediately log back in as myacct, I am able to su to root no problem. I am running 5.3-STABLE, and the latest X (or very, very near it). It happens with at least two distinct WMs (Window Maker and Fluxbox). Any idea? Or any further information I can provide? Thanks, Bob Vesterman.
