You need a file called .Xauthority in your home directory - AFAIK it is made by the Xserver on startup. It should look something like this (the permissions are important - it must not be readable by anyone else): [2]wyvern:~$ ls -l .Xauthority -rw------- 1 bridgett mdev2 150 Feb 23 19:27 .Xauthority Try looking at the "xauth" manpage.
