I've now spent far too much time looking at all manner of articles
and threads about rootless Xorg without systemd. My gut feeling now
is that, for a machine without systemd and multiple users on
different seats, old suid X is a working solution.
I've also tried various ways of snooping on why I can't get perms
for input devices, with no useful results.
However, I've apparently built all the infrastructure for what is
currently in the book (except that I want to run fluxbox rather than
twm, which I did not build). So, beforeI rip elogind out of my
builds, can anyone please offer .xinitrc scripts (hopefully,
minimal: mine are anything but) which work with rootless X using
elogind, plus a note of which video driver (and I suppose input,
i.e. full libinput or just evdev) is being used ?
