Hello there, Since I've upgraded from XFree 3.3.6. to 4.0.3 and now 4.1.0 I have being experienced 2 probs with it no my Debian/Sid. First is if any non-root user tries to startx the following happend: elemag@debian:~$ startx giving up xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): server error. But if root startx , everything is OK. The second problem is : debian:~# apt-get -f install Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 532 not upgraded. 1 packages not fully installed or removed. Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used. Setting up xserver-xfree86 (4.1.0-6) ... dpkg: error processing xserver-xfree86 (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: xserver-xfree86 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) debian:~# Here are the configs and outputs: debian:/# cat /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc #!/bin/sh exec /usr/bin/X11/XFree86 -dpi 100 $* debian:/# debian:/etc/X11# cat Xserver /usr/bin/X11/XFree86 #RootOnly #Console #(anyone whose controlling tty is on the console) Anybody debian:/etc/X11# cat Xsession.options allow-failsafe allow-user-modmap allow-user-resources allow-user-xsession use-ssh-agent debian:/etc/X11# cat Xwrapper.config allowed_users=console nice_value=-10 debian:/etc/X11# debian:/etc/X11# dpkg -l |grep xserver ii xserver-common 4.1.0-6 files and utilities common to all X servers pi xserver-common 3.3.6-38 files and utilities common to XFree86 3.x X rc xserver-svga 3.3.6-38 X server for SVGA graphics cards iF xserver-xfree8 4.1.0-6 the XFree86 X server debian:/etc/X11# How can I use some X wrapper to allow other console users to startx successfully? Well I do not know how to resolve these problems. dpkg --force=all also doesn't help .Hope I was quite informative about the system Thank you in advance -- Greets, George
