For security reasons, the display managers xdm, kdm and gdm are 
configured by default to prohibit login as root.  You can login as a 
regular user and use su or sudo.  By the way, what do you mean you tried 
to delete encryption in /etc/shadow?  If you edited that file by hand, 
you might not be able to login or su as root at all (like Ubuntu!)
