here is what i do in KDE

i made sure the workstation in which i'd like to login as root has the next
line in the /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc file

AllowRootLogin=true

i use auto login per workstation set by mac address, so i added the line in
the middle...

[X-ws001:0-Core]
AllowRootLogin=true
AutoLoginUser=pc1
[X-ws001:0-Greeter]
DefaultUser=pc1
