Title:
Cannot launch more than one xvfb instance as different users
Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce:
(1) As a certain user (userX), launch xvfb using xinit (successfully) thus:
$ /usr/bin/xinit /usr/bin/xterm -- /usr/bin/Xvfb :40 -screen 0
1280x1024x24 -cc 4 -nolisten tcp
[dix] Could not init font path element
/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType, removing from list!
/usr/bin/xinit: XFree86_VT property unexpectedly has 0 items instead of 1
(2) As another user (userY), launch xvfb using xinit *unsuccessfully*:
$ /usr/bin/xinit /usr/bin/xterm -- /usr/bin/Xvfb :41 -screen 0
1280x1024x24 -cc 4 -nolisten tcp
[dix] Could not init font path element
/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType, removing from list!

XKB: Failed to compile keymap
Keyboard initialization failed. This could be a missing or incorrect setup of
xkeyboard-config.

(3) The reason is that
/tmp/server-B20D7FC79C7F597315E3E501AEF10E0D866E8E92.xkm already exists and is
owned by userX, as detailed here on the same system:
$ ls -l /tmp/server-B20D7FC79C7F597315E3E501AEF10E0D866E8E92.xkm
-rw------- 1 userX groupX 11252 Oct 17 16:49
/tmp/server-B20D7FC79C7F597315E3E501AEF10E0D866E8E92.xkm
