An ugly hack, > but it works. Further addition to this--actually, as long as I remove ~/.Xauthority-l and ~/.Xauthority-c, it works. I don't have to bother removing .Xauthority itself. Again, I don't know enough about this to understand exactly what is going on. If Nakaji-san tried removing his ~/.Xauthority-c and -l files and tried restarting and it works, then perhaps we're onto something. :) Have I, in the course, of this thread, thanked you for your efforts? If not, I thank you now, both for the help with this apparently oddball problem and for your work in making the update patches. - -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Oz: Sometimes when I'm sitting in class...you know, I'm not thinking about class 'cause that would never happen...
