-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I installed the fbsd 4.5 rci-cdboot.iso & everything was running fine. The only thing that I can think I did before the xwindows started messing up was to install gimp. Now, when in xwindows as root, I can't access the terminal & users can't use xwindows at all. After hitting startx as user, following message displays: 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. Any advise as to where & what to read & check on greatly appreciated. Hate to wipe out the install. Would much rather fix it & learn from it. Thanks. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8Qmjmy0Ty5RZE55oRAtdkAKDPQECCOncv/7y6/NIeB4Y0jlnEfwCfYUiR W+byotWUaAzY2cpKsYezQSs= =QcE2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
