Thanks for this information. This helps clarify some problems I had in the
past about root in SuSE & root for MySQL. I've read and re-read the
documentation and have had some 'huh ?' moments as the documents are a bit
terse and complicated. I think it would be nice if Yast had a module for
setting up MySQL including a help assistant too.

Anyway, thanks for pointing this (ROOT v root) out. Now I (we) know.

You are welcome. It is strange that this is something that is not often
explained better. Especialy as the logins all start with login 'root'
and that is not needed. So why use that as an example?

A simple paragraph explaining the difference should help a LOT of people
starting with MySQL
