following the installation of kde11 I get the following error when
trying to execute startx;

Authentication failed - Cannot start X server.
Perhaps you do not have console ownership?

Any pointers would be helpful.  I wonder if permission plays a 
part here.  I noticed during the installation of kde11 the 
make install was chmod'ing alot of 444's - that seems awfully restrictive.
