Hi!
I am not able to run 'startx' when I am non-root. But can
successfully run it as a root. Following is the error msg.

Fatal server error:
xf86OpenConsole: Server must be running with root permissions
You should be using Xwrapper to start the server or xdm.
We strongly advise against making the server SUID root!
When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send
the full server output, not just the last messages
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can anybody tell me what is the exact problem and how do I fix it.
