Operating Systems Linux SuSE Logging in as root on SuSE 9.1 Post 56130 by zazzybob on Tuesday 28th of September 2004 11:01:19 AM

Could it be that last time you logged out of KDE as root, you had YaST running, and thus when you've logged back in, all you see is YaST as its saved the session?

What happens when you exit YaST, does it log you out or do you see desktop?

Cheers
