Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.2.1-7 Followup-For: Bug #196575 After upgrading several X packages (xlibs, xbase-clients, xserver-common, xserver-xfree86 and more) I was unable to start any new X programs. For example, xterm would complain
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: Invalid XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 key (failed key comparison) xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :0 I logged out hoping that KDM would generate a new key and fix things, but it didn't work -- KDM greeter is unable to connect to the X server either and KDM just aborts. I have nearly the same problem with XDM -- the login dialog works, but my .xsession aborts with the same Invalid XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 key message. GDM2 (Unofficial package from http://non-us.debian.org woody/gnome2) works fine. Plain startx used to work before I tried xdm/gdm, but now doesn't. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux mg 2.4.20-mg #1 Fri Jan 31 22:32:32 EET 2003 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=lt_LT.UTF-8 Versions of packages xserver-xfree86 depends on: ii debconf 1.2.39 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.1-17 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii xserver-common 4.2.1-7 files and utilities common to all ii zlib1g 1:1.1.4-12 compression library - runtime Marius Gedminas -- Of course everyone knows that vim is the best text editor in the world.
