I run this desktop with XFree86 and GDM.
root can logon without complaints but if a non--superuser tries to logon, the session fails immediately.
The following appears in .xsession-errors. I'm concluding I did something wrong when I moved /var but I'm not sure where to start with this.
TIA for any help.
/usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/PreSession//Default: Registering your session with wtmp and utmp /usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/PreSession//Default: running: sessreg -a -w /var/log/wtmp -u /var/run/utmp -x "/usr/X11R6/share/gnome/gdm/:0.Xservers" -h "" -l :0 Tom You can permanently set environment variables for your shell by putting them in a startup file for the shell. The name of the startup file varies depending on the shell - csh and tcsh uses .login, bash, sh, ksh and zsh use .profile. When using bash, sh, ksh or zsh, don't forget to export the variable. mkdtemp: private socket dir: Permission denied
