Package: xinit Version: 1.1.1-1 The startx script invokes xinit like this: xinit "$client" $clientargs -- "$server" $display $serverargs If there are no explicit arguments and no local .xserverrc script, $server has been previously initialized to /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc. $serverargs holds, among other things, the auth file. The xinit line in a typical system looks like this: xinit /home/cigaes/.xinitrc -- /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc :0 -auth /tmp/serverauth.axdsHbFbfp The problem is that the default xserverrc script looks like this: exec /usr/bin/X11/X -nolisten tcp Which means it completely ignores its arguments, including the -auth stuff. Cookie-based authentication is therefore not enabled in the server. Suggested fix: exec /usr/bin/X11/X -nolisten tcp "$@" Seems to work for me. Regards, -- Nicolas GeorgeAttachment: signature.asc
