System is 4.3.0, XFree86 is 4.0.3_3 rebuilt and reinstalled from the ports collection yesterday lunchtime. When run from a userid other than root, XFree reports "unable to open /var/log/XFree86.0.log". Permissions for this file were 644,root,wheel. Amending the permissions to 666,root,wheel and restarting resulted in: xf86OpenConsole: Server must be suid root Rather than just hacking my way through this, can anyone offer a suggestion regarding which install step I missed ?
