I hope you forgive me that I divert this issue back to the mailing list as well.

It seem it did work. The only problem is that now I cannot login to my X session. It logs me out immediately and leaves the following in the xsession-errors file /etc/gdm/PreSession//Default: Registering your session with wtmp and utmp /etc/gdm/PreSession//Default: running: sessreg -a -w /var/log/wtmp -u /var/run/utmp -x "/var/lib/gdm/:0.Xservers" -h "" -l :0 gabor -: xhost: command not found Now what ?
