login as root using gdm restarts X

[Jerry Sy <syjerry netzero net>]

I thought I got my gdm problems fixed, but as it turns out, I can't login
as root in gdm. 
Actually, I don't get an invalid login error, I think it logs in, but then
restarts X right away 
so I brings up a new gdm login screen again. 
I tried deleting all my gnome and enlightenment config files in /root, and
just left the 
.xsession file but it still does not work.

how is the gdm user and group created ? I just did a useradd -g gdm gdm
