    root folders group changed

    The group of the /root folder has been changed and then logged out
    I am not able to log in to the /root user as it is saying Xsession log in not allowed
    Is there any way that the group of the /root folder be changed?

    You will probably have to boot with the cd/dvd in rescue mode, mount you hard disk, and modify it there

    You should still be able to log on as root through the command line. Press alt+F2 and then login as root. Use the chmod and chown tools to change permissions.
