This is a policy decision by the Gnome people and is the same in F11. There has been much discussion of it on this list so you can Google for workarounds if you like. Personally I think it's a Good Thing (tm) even though as a KDE user it doesn't affect me, but let's not start another thread about it :-) (BTW the reason you can't think of why you would need to log in to the GUI desktop as root is that there is no scenario in which that is the only option to solve a problem). poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
