It is best to put the debian file back here and change /etc/X11/Xserver to reference /usr/X11R6/bin/Xaccel - then your Xaccel does not need to be setuid) -> replaces some files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults (such as XTerm) -> I think it may also replace some apps (like xterm) These will stuff up xdm, and your normal X configuration. I found that when I undid these changes it worked fine. cheers, Chris. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
