Gnome-session problem

[Johann Spies <jhspies@futurenet.co.za>]

Sometimes when I do startx I get the following error message :

GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
Authentication Rejected, reason : MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 authentication
rejected.

This does not always happen.  When it happens, I do Alt-Ctrl-Bksp and
startx again and then it usually works.  

I work on Slink and I did use apt-get to update my gnome packages from 

http://www.debian.org/~jim/debian-gtk-gnome.old/gnome-stage-slink slink main

What is causing this and how can I correct this strange behaviour?  

Johann
