running (4-Stable) Hi, short form question: how does one run XDM under securelevel>0 ? long version: i've searched for an answer on how to run Xfree/Xorg at a securelevel the X server likes access to /dev/io and some other resources but is not granted access after security is switched on. one way of doing it seems to be to start it before setting the securelevel, but then is doesnt allow a restart of X. the other option seems to be the Aperture patch, ported in 2001 with no recent updates and no longer usable against the current software. 2nd part of the question.. cd writing needs direct access to /dev/<acd0c> and that is also not allowed in secure more. how can one give selective access to only allow (RW) access to one or two devices ? if there is no way of doing these things with configs and such, can anyone point me at the relevant source code that controls these functions so i can add this specific functionality. Cheers * Anna
