Hi, FreeBSD-Questions. I can't start gnome, or mozilla, other than as root. Running "startx" as a regular user gives an error message about needing to be SUID root to start the server. Mozilla gives a similar 'permissions' error message. I followed the FreeBSD Handbook for the installation of XF86-4.x from the ports collection and have the same .xinitrc in my user dir as I have in root's dir. Can you be of any help in this? Thanks.
