Root OTA update, now no longer rooted?

hey all.

i rooted my desire about a month ago, and only used root access for backups.
last week i got the OTA update to 2.2 and installed it, but now i think i no longer have root access. i was doing something (i forget what now) and it told me i need root access to do the task. i still have superuser permissions on my app list, but im not totally convinced...

is there an easy way to find out if i still have root access?
 
It won't quite do that. The OTA update will definitely remove root if it works, but will leave the phone in a way that isn't completely stock.
