This is not sufficient for me to reproduce your issue. It is quite common that root is rejected by X login. But, you should be able to login on the console. Can you check your /var/log/auth.log or /var/log/syslog for any reasons for the rejection of the login? Can you provide the result of sudo chage -l root Do you have any special PAM module, any configuration that would differ from a normal install? Can you check the result of: getent passwd root sudo getent shadow root Do not put the result of these 2 commands in your reply. They may contain your root's password.
