I got a user report recently about this situation -- I'll verify. It's possible they created a non-admin user account in addition to setting the root password. However, it seems in this case they could log in as that non-admin user and unlock with the root password, right? Maybe the problem is simply insufficient warning when logging in to GNOME as root. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
