"ll -d /tmp" should output something like this: drwsrwsrwx 5 root root 1024 Aug 17 21:43 /tmp ^^^^^^^^^^ If this isn't right, "chmod 1777 /tmp" should do it. If that doesn't help, check the .xsession-errors file for the user, or use startx from a console to see the messages. > PS. How can I make Xserver NOT start automatic. Remove the xdm package. If you'd rather keep it around, use the update-rc.d utility: update-rc.d -f xdm remove update-rc.d xdm start 99 5 . stop 01 0 1 2 3 4 6 . # This will start xdm in runlevel 5 only.
