Root Login

#1 Post by tjhome »

I am using Debian 3.1 with KDE 3.5.
I login under my name, which is the only user available in the login screen. The default permission will not allow me to do very much. Since I am the only user of theis computer, is there any way to include the root user in the login screen so I can login as the root.

Any help with this will be appreciated.

Tony...

Just as a by-question ;) Why do you need a root kdm session? Surely you can accomplish pretty much everything with a root konsole?
