Thank you all for the help. I can access a shell from ctrl alt F2 and can use it to do the admin work I need to with this system. find / -name su gives me a lot of 'permission denied' for many of the directories. which su gives me /usr/bin/which: no su in (/usr/lib/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/lib/alliance/bin:/usr/libexec/sdcc:/home/walt/bin:/usr/lib/alliance/bin:/usr/libexec/sdcc)
But the part that bothers me the most is when I want to run yumex or some other GUI app that requires root privileges, I can't. Thanks again!! Walt
These sound like SELinux issues. What does # id Show?

Does "which su" find su in your path?
If not, try "find / -name su" to find out where it is on your system.
