btw: it is very possible that there were several users acting as root through "su -" command but there may have been users running "sudo" just as well. Take that into account when confronting people. They might have been the perpetrators and they might have not.
in short: your best bet is to use a lie detector :)

What?! Depending on the distro, he might not even have the Gnome on his box. Furthermore, if one sets up a server, even X is rarely installed.
And how would the user know when the exact modification took place and who to blame when the /var/log/messages file does not indicate it ("su -" occurrences are not there). the gnome-system-log does not have the functionality to display the login accounting information like the command "last" does. I can't see how the accepted answer has given the user the solution he needed.

using this time you can verify the wtmp logs and confirm the user. run "man stat" and "man utmp".
