problem logging in as root in version 4 RC1

I'm having problem logging in as root in the new version 4. Tazpanel doesn't  let me  login as root. It loops over and over and come back to the same form.  Even if I exit and login as root, it doesn't accepted it.

Also the wireless network connection doesn't let you login as root. But in this case, if you exit and login as root it works fine.

Re: problem logging in as root in version 4 RC1

Hi,

I found the TazPanel bug. By default we use the system password (tazpanel root is same than system root) but when one install slitaz the installer use "chpasswd" to set wanted root password and this break TazPanel.

We may be back to a specific password for TazPanel, for now one can fix the by changing root password with this command:

# passwd root
