Greetings, I hope that I got the right list.
I am having trouble getting su to function correctly.
I have my users added to the wheel group, but no dice. Am I missing something? I upgraded pam to fix the login bug, but it didn't work before that either.
I could appreciate some help here. Everthing else works flawlessly.
Thanks for your time.

From gentoo-user gentoo-user:
Check if your /bin/su is suid root. If not, chmod 6755 /bin/su
As I recall there was a problem along the portage and pam update, su was
loosign suid bit for some people.

Using the internet as it was originally intended...
for the further research of pornography and pipebombs.
