An update on the Xauthority problem 8-) On a wild idea, I commented out any references to initializing XAUTHORITY anywhere in the system. Lo and behold, xauth worked and I now have good .Xauthority files for root and other users! I did logout all users to reset all the enviroment variables before using 'xauth'.
Is this a feature or a bug? BTW, now xdm won't finish booting for any user other than root. I get the initial Xserver screen, then return to login. -- -= Sent by Debian 1.3 Linux =- Thomas Kocourek KD4CIK @[EMAIL PROTECTED]@westgac3.dragon.com Remove @_@ for correct Email address --... ...-- ... -.. . -.- -.. ....- -.-. .. -.- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
