Hello

If I su from user martin to root or from user martin to martin (for testing) I 
get this errors in /var/log/messages:

[snip]
May  9 11:33:08 merkur init: can't get /dev/console for controlling terminal: Operation not permitted
May  9 11:33:38 merkur init: can't get /dev/console for controlling terminal: Operation not permitted
[snip]

I crosschecked also the permissions on /dev/console. They are correct. Any 
hints are welcome.
