You need to setuid the X server to root.  Or, you need to get a copy of
Xwrapper, which can be found at the Xfree86 ftp site. 
(ftp://ftp.xfree86.org)  I'm not sure of the exact location, but you
should be able to find it there.  If not, drop me a line and I'll do
some checking for it.  Its easier than figuring out which rpm to 
download.
