Can you login in as root?

After upgrading my laptop to ubuntu 7.10 (via 7.04) sudo and gksu now
fail to work. They sometimes offer a prompt, but don't accept any
keyboard input, or fail. Other times they don't even offer a password
prompt.

Ideas?

No, I never did give root a password. I was trying to do things the
proper "Ubuntu" way.
