Hey guys, this is not a coruption, but a new thing with Gnome. I had the
problem and wrote Gnome Directly. They have decided that you should not be

on a AMD Athlon 1600XP machine with 256MB RAM and 40GB hard disk.

Don't. Use ssh for remote root login, it is far more secure.
But if you are on a local trusted LAN and still want to continue, you can
log in as a normal user and su to root. If you still want to l

I think I have just done something really inept which seems to have made my
