Can't login as root in GUI


I m using SUSE 10.1. Recently i downloaded n installed yahoo messenger of redhat flavour on my SUSE. Since then it is not allowing me to enter as root in GUI. It gives following error msg when i attempt to do so :
Your session lasted 4 less than 10 sec. Either u hv some installation problem or ur disk space is low.

So, you have an installation problem. Delete messenger. Use gaim or kopete or something. Yahoo's linux messenger is crap anyway.
