Hi all, since about two weeks I have problems starting X from the console. The error message: "X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting."
The file /etc/X11/Xserver reads: /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 Console The first line in this file is the full pathname of the default X server. The second line shows who is allowed to run the X server: RootOnly Console (anyone whose controlling tty is on the console) Anybody Any ideas where to look? root can start x just fine. This is XFree86, version 4.0.2 from woody: ii xfree86-common 4.0.2-1 X Window System (XFree86) infrastructure ii xserver-common 4.0.2-1 files and utilities common to all X servers ii xserver-xfree8 4.0.2-1 the XFree86 X server Regards, Bernd. -- Bernd Sokolowsky @ home
