Hi all, I've developed a problem with running X under 2.2.7-STABLE (cvsupped about 3 weeks ago). I've been using X with tvtwm successfully for some time now, having installed it manually rather than via the port. Yesterday I installed fvwm2 from the ports, and since, I've been *sort* of unable to start a server successfully. Root can start a server no problem (using startx from the command line), but any non-root user can't, with the output from startx as shown below. It will keep trying to connect ad-infinitum (I stopped it). The server *does* seem to run in that the grey background appears, with the `X' mouse pointer, which moves, but no client gets launched. In fact, it never gets as far as parsing .xinitrc (I tried putting `echo "Reading xinitrc"' at the start of the file, which displays when put in roots .xinitrc, but no joy from a users) It's a similar story with xdm - root can log in, but a user gets dumped back to xdm with something like this in $HOME/.xsession-errors: _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 13 xrdb: Permission denied xrdb: Can't open display ':0' _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 13 Error: Can't open display: :0 I suspect it may be an xauth problem, but creating an .Xauthority file from roots valid permissions using something like: # xauth extract - $DISPLAY | ssh -l user localhost xauth merge - creates a valid looking .Xauthority file in the users home directory, but after a (failed) attempt at starting a server, the entries vanish from the file. Any hints or clues anybody could give me would be most appreciated, as this is starting to drive me demented. I guess it's possible that fvwm2 overwrote something during the install but having had a close look at the output from it, it all seems reasonably inoxious. Reinstalling XFree86 (this time *from* the port) has had no effect.
