Sometimes, in the graphics mode, we want to have total access to our system with no need to use I sweat or his. In order to enter to the graphics mode in Ubuntu being used the super user account, you will have to make the following thing: If not yet you have fixed a password for the user root you will have to do it now writing and executing to type password root in a terminal. The system will ask for the password that you entered the installation and soon you will have to enter the new password for root and to confirm. Now you must use in the terminal the commando his and enter the password of root.

In GNOME you will have to go to the menu: System - > Administration - > Configuration of the screen of beginning of session. In the eyelash Security, it marks to allow to a user root to initiate the GDM session and accepts. In KDE he is a little more troublesome.

It opens Konqueror to arrive until the /etc/kde3/kdm/ folder. When arriving at the folder it looks for the file or file kdmrc. Beam click with the secondary button in kdmrc and selects “To publish like root”. In the publisher it looks for (s) the line (s) that says AllowRootLogin=false and changes false by true. It keeps the changes and it closes the publisher.
