idea logging in with the root account directly to you box, but if you need it here's the solution.
First of all make a backup copy of the file you need to modify:
cp /etc/gdm/gdm /etc/gdm/gdm.backup cp /etc/gdm/gdm-password /etc/gdm/gdmpassword.backup cp /etc/gdm/gdm-fingerprint /etc/gdm/gdm-fingerprint.backup
Now modify these files:
vi gdm vi gdm-password vi gdm-fingerprint
You need to comment or remove the line:
auth required pam_succeed_if.so user
!= root quiet
Reboot you system and you can logon with root in the GUI.
If you don't have the fingerprint sensor on you machine, probably you don't need to change this file!
Tested only on Fedora Core 11 & 12

Root login via GDM with your changes was working a couple of days ago
after I first installed Fedora 12 but now I can no longer login as root via GDM.
Any suggestions?

Gerry :: have you re-checked the conf files you modified?
Probably some installation or configuration steps made after the first installation has resetted them to the original configuration.
