Hopefully this is a simple problem. As root I can start and run X without any problem, however as a user I get the message when using startx: X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting. If I just run X I get the same message. If I run XFree86 I get Fatal server error: xf86OpenConsole: server must be setuid root This is with XFree86 v4.0.2 rc3 on woody. This seems to be only a recent problem croped up in the last couple of days. Any ideas how to fix this. What file is the server? or do I have to add my user to some group or another. This doesn't happen if I use XFree compiled myself so I assume this is a debian problem. Please cc me on reply as I am not subscribed to the list. Thanks James Carscadden JamesCarscadden@home.com
