If I run linuxconf-auth, after entering the root password, I get this error: Error message from remadmin :Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Error message from remadmin :Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server Error message from remadmin : Error message from remadmin :Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0
This should be fixed in the latest build. The workaround is to add "SESSION=yes" to /etc/security/console.apps/linuxconf-auth.
Should be "SESSION=true", actually.
