cannot stat 'su' : no such file or directory

Please Help.......

With all these recent "Thanks", I assume this is working. It just seems the 1st page is very outdated, and I want to be sure I know what I'm doing. SuperOneClick is at Version 1.9.1 with drivers. Watching the SuperOneClick video, it seems you don't have to do any of the command prompt stuff, is that true? Could anyone who used 1.9.1 reply with your "method"? Do I use "Root" (as per SuperOneClick video), or "Shell Root" (as per page 1 here)?

Also, since I added the LG driver, every time I boot my computer, it asks if I should give LG permission to change files. Is there a way to get rid of that message? I just click no if I'm not messing with the Optimus.
