And here's the same file from an OpenSUSE 11.0 installation that is
working correctly:

------------------------------------------------------------------
#%PAM-1.0
auth     sufficient     pam_rootok.so
auth     include        common-auth
account  include        common-account
password include        common-password
session  include        common-session
session  optional       pam_xauth.so
------------------------------------------------------------------
