Hi Gadi,

Just one more problem that I have experienced:
I see that you are running Xserver with the -ac option that disables
security - I think it is very dangerous thing so I have removed it and
enabled the xauth command in the /usr/bin/startnx.

After I did that I had serious problems to start twm - it refused to start.

so eventually I had to amend the /etc/screen.d/startnx command so
1. the xinit command at the end is backgrounded
2. I added 2 more lines at the end of the file:
export XAUTHORITY=/tmp/some_magic
/usr/X11R6/bin/twm -display unix:0.0

I do not know why, but it works (maybe if we just create .xinitrc, it
would run as well)
