    How do I tell if rooted?

    I have a Motorola droid x and I ran Z4root. Then I downloaded and installed SetCPU, which indicated that the CPU was not rooted. So how can I tell if the CPU has been rooted independently.

    As you can tell I am a novice to all of this and would appreciate any information you can give me.

    If you want a confirmation that you are rooted, get Root Checker from the market, it'll let you know.
