"root" vs. "su"

Hi, again.

As a bizarre aside to my SCSI and ethernet card problems, I find that I 
have to log in as "root" rather than "su" from user to perform commands 
like "lsmod", "insmod", etc.

When I log in as user then "su" to root, I get "bash <command>: command not 
found", however logged in as "root" all works as expected.

It seems like a permission's issue to me, but how would I resolve it?  And, 
I don't seem to recall this being a problem in the past!?  (Have I bumped 
into something in "linuxconf" that I shouldn't have?)

TIA.

Cheers,

Peter
