> who owns /tmp/.X11-unix after you login? in the case I can reproduce it is owned by gdm, and I can confirm it is a regression compared to *u4.1 as in *u4.1 it does not happen if /tmp/.X11-unix is owned by gdm.
We're missing something different in our set ups then because exact same procedure gives different results... I'm testing in a virtual machine. After 'systemctl stop gdm; rm -r /tmp/.X11-unix; systemctl start gdm': File: /tmp/.X11-unix/ Size: 80 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 4096 directory Device: 0,32 Inode: 276 Links: 2 Access: (1777/drwxrwxrwt) Uid: ( 120/ gdm) Gid: ( 122/ gdm) Access: 2025-02-27 08:35:02.481540724 +0100 Modify: 2025-02-27 08:35:02.861535505 +0100 Change: 2025-02-27 08:35:02.861535505 +0100 Birth: 2025-02-27 08:35:02.481540724 +0100 After logging in, same thing.
