If you really want the best effect then lift the old SUSE admin/root background image with bright red background and lit fuse old style bombs all over it.
Did you actually read my post carefully or merely knee jerk react to the idea of logging in as root? [Log in as root with root as user then your root password. Do work as root. Log out and use normal permission as a regular user for normal use.] I cautioned users about it and told them to use normal permissions for daily use. I was trying to avoid a flame war while offering information. Perhaps you read some of my posts about this in another forum somewhere?
Many users of SUSE and other distributions have been using Linux for more than a decade with the free chance to log in as root anytime they wish with no problems at all. The
M distributions seem to feel the 'nanny need' to restrict this. Fine, you collectively made that restrictive choice prior to release of the software. I have merely offered information to allow someone to do maintenance on the system without value judgements as to whether they should do so or not. I have had instances in the past with problems that only could have been fixed if I had set the system up to let me log in as root. The problems would have required a complete reinstall if I had not been able to log in as root. So, I offered this information to allow thinking people to freely choose to make a free choice decision about their wish to use the computer they own with the software they downloaded.
I honestly believe that many users in the M forums forget that the bulk of the users of this software are desktop users who are using stand alone computers or laptops, I think, and not being controlled by an administrator in a network at a business somewhere who needs to keep the system controlled to keep it safe. Germ and I have danced verbally around this idea in the past in other places in a free debate without rancor. We choose to disagree on this. I mention the word free a lot here because I view this as a free choice. Many others disagree. You are free to do so.
Your mileage may vary...
