trying to tinker with XF86Setup i ended up deleting /usr/X11R6/bin/X. Now this file is basically used by xdm (or startx) and it points to the appropriate X server to be used (such as VGA16 or SVGA or Mah64 or, in my case, XFCom-i810). so i simply copied the file XFcom_i810 in /usr/X11R6/bin to X. now i have a problem. i can only run X as root. also, xdm runs fine so when i login as myself, i.e. akr, it just goes thru login, and then in a flash relaunches xdm with a blank login prompt. i.e. xdm will accept only root login to proceed further. i am sure this has something to do with permissions. i would rather not make akr as a sudoer. what should i do? (the perms on /usr/X11R6/bin/X are +rx for everybody. tia- akr ----------------------------------------------------- The mailing list archives are available at http://lists.linux-india.org/cgi-bin/wilma/linux-delhi/
