[Bug 283672] [NEW] root-account problems

 

Public bug reported:

I did a "sudo passwd root" and thought that i can use a root-account as
with the vanilla-ubuntu. I _can_ login using a different tty but can't
after logging in graphically, open xterm and do "su -". I always get
"Authentication failure".
