[Q] [Help/Q] Rooted, but adb is not recognizing su priviledges

Okay, my Atrix is rooted and USB Debugging is on, but when I try to remount adb, it says "remount failed: Operation not permitted". Since I can't get adb shell to the # to come up, I type "adb shell su" and I get a Permission denied. I originally rooted with SuperOneClick and enabled sideloading with it and today I rerooted, unrooted, then used DesignGears' new root script to reroot and clean up SuperOneClick's root. Still no adb root access. I have TitaniumBackup, Superuser, and RootExplorer installed and even downloaded Root Checker to check if i really had root. I've spent almost all day looking this up and the closest I've found is the thread that talks about adb showing the device offline with the fix of copying over another adbd to the sbin folder(which I also tried) and adb still doesn't seem to recognize my root. The only time I can get the # prompt is when I do a shell root with SuperOneClick, but that is just a temporary root. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Edit: forgot to mention that adb works fine when I connect my NexusOne, so it's probably not the computer.

[Q] ADB issue

I'm attempting to get webtop from HDMI to work and attempted the install.bat thing but still nothing so I went to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12580345&postcount=634
I can push those files but can not SU in adb shell
I am able to SU in terminal on my phone but not the adb shell
What can I do to get this working? I'm not sure what info you need from my phone to better assist but ask.
I'm running 2.2.2 rooted with gingerbreak I tried to reroot but no go don't think i need too and superuser app is there and works since i use TB and bloat freeze
I just get permission denied thanks for any help. I have googled this but can't find anything.
could you maybe have a problem with ADB itself? Maybe try reinstalling your SDK and setting up ADB again? You said you already tried to re-root and that didnt fix the issue. Maybe someone with more knowledge of ADB could provide more assistance...
I managed to get it working. I noticed when I had my screen set to not turn off i received a message to all access and I granted SU now it works fine.

[Q] adb shell $ instead of #, adb root cannot run

I've followed the following thread CF-root 4.1.
Everything went fine and the kernel is rooted.
I can use apps which require root, like TitaniumBackup.
I also can use su to gain root privileges and also adb shell and then su. To make this more clear. I first get $ (user priv) and then with "su" i get # (root priv).
For this reason i can't use the adb push method, because i'm not root directly.
adb root which is suggested in a couple of threads isn't helping me. I get the following output. "adbd cannot run as root in production builds".
How can i fix it, so i can have root privileges directly when connecting via the adb shell?
You need an "insecure kernel" for that.
There are several for download in a thread in the dev section.
Why do you need ADB to be running as root for pushing, if you don't mind asking?

Many thanks for illuminating people in this situation!
Cuz it's obviously more comfortable to do stuff using the computer's keyboard.

Anyway, So I Just Tried Editting My Systemui.apk File, So Now I'm Trying to Use ADB to Push it back to My Phone. So I Go to ADB and Type the ADB Command " ADB Push systemui.apk /system/app " And It Says Permission Denied...

AW: [Q] ADB Permission Denied
Under developer options you have to grant superuser rights to adb. Under root access you have to choose adb and apps.
Then you should be able to type in terminal adb su. And then your command.
