    Root user login warning:This session is running as a privileged user

    Root user login - warning
    I have enabled root user and I am able to login as root user successfully.

    The thing, I get to click Continue when the “This session is running as a privileged user” box pops up each time I login as root.

    How can I turn this message off?

    You can't change it as it's compiled into the package .

    Don't log into the desktop as root user - then you won't see the warning message.

    Or did you think it was just there as a joke, or to annoy you? It's a warning.

    EDIT: We've been through these discussions before, and they're usually volatile. See this thread for the last brouhaha, and maybe some answers. I'm closing this thread before it has a chance to duplicate that mess. Send me a PM if you have questions or problems with that.
