your Xserver is fine if it works as root. It's probably your Xautorization.

When i try to start an X session as user mike by running startx it fails with the message: xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/mike/.Xauthority But it works ok when i startx as root. This was working fine until yesterday, but i haven't figured out what i may have changed to cause this. Any cluesL TIA. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
