If I guessed wrong, I'm willing to be chased away. Immediately after my last make world and reboot (new kernel, new LKMs too) I brought XFree86 back up again, did a bunch of manual rearrangements (I haven't had time to re-customize my screen stuff after my disk crash of a couple months ago), then I started ppp back up. I waas happily finishing the screen stuff, but the moment that ppp finished connecting, X stopped listening to me, and kept giving me the error: picnic:/usr2/chuckr:47 >Xlib: connection to "picnic.mat.net:0.0" refused by server Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key Error: Can't open display: picnic.mat.net:0.0 I used xauth to manually add localhost, then read out the key using xuath list, then manually added the exact same key value for picnic.mat.net:0.0. This got my back to adding screens, but what's the correct fix? Seeing as this happened immediately after ppp connected and set up routes for me, I think maybe ppp is doing something now it didn't used to do? It may matter that I was a couple weeks out of date in building current, so any changes in ppp accrued from then, but the rebuild was from very fresh sources, just this morning. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@glue.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and picnic, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 3.0 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
