OK, i can have some lacks in system administration, but such reply 'type
this' and 'type that' really make me pissed of. As the many so-called
informatics books learning programmation just by giving some
cute-and-paste example and the correct button to presh thereafter... So
please explain what you want, or just tell me my question is stupid.

So, no need to be root for either command, morevoer first one is already
in my first mail XFree86-xfs-4.0.1-17mdk. Second one told me that owner
of config file /etc/X11/fs/config was not OK : it was root.root, where
xfs.xfs was waited for as in /etc/X11/fs/config.rpmnew. Maybe a missing
chown in upgrade scripts ?

Anyway, changing this don't change anything to the problem :
xfs runs fine by direct invocation :
su xfs -c "xfs -port -1 -daemon" -s /bin/sh
and it fails by indirect invocation :
daemon --check xfs su xfs -c \"xfs -port -1 -daemon\" -s /bin/sh
That leads me to think problems comes from script, not from xfs launch
arguments.

Just another remark : restart sequence should duplicate start and stop
sequence, no ?
So why is the -daemon argument only present in start sequence ?
