Thanks. That has resolved the problem. That said though, I still don't understand why a plain old su is not working, as it does on other distros, including my other Debian installs. Never mind. So now I have Sarge, Etch, and Lenny, where I can just use su + password to use GUI apps, but now with the new Etch install, I have to use sux + password to use the GUI apps. I am getting a bit old, and having to remember different commands for, in this case the same distro, that I have 2 instances installed, is a bit trying, but I suppose it keeps my brain active.
