I think I haven't restarted the X11 server since.) You need to either reinstall Xwrapper port, or setuid root your XFree86 and accept the possible security holes. I wish we could accept having some sort of suid Xwrapper installed with XFree86-4-Server, but that would probably be shot down for security concerns by those who don't use startx. -- Eric Anholt <eta@lclark.edu> http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/dri/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
