My guess is that the shell in your terminal is not running as the same user you logged in as -- did you su to root? Simplest solution: don't su within the terminal; just stay as your normal user and everything should be OK. (X security is a complicated system, so I didn't go into it here. I can post a brief explanation of the issues if you're interested.) Richard
adsl and xemacs (beginner)
Hi, I am a beginner and have 2 questions: 1) I configured my DSL from Verizon from root, by using the Roariing Penguin software but when I go to my user account I am not able to connect as I dont have the adsl-start utility. Will I need to redo the process I did for root for every user account i create ? 2) I used apt-get install xemacs and got the editor but am not able to open it from console (xemacs ),I get the follwing error Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server Initialization error: X server not responding : :0.0 [1]+ Exit 255xemacs I can however use it from the Apps-Editor-Xemacs Why is this so..can you give me a web resource to understand the \ reason, Thanks , Kapil

Or did you mean xterminal? You actually can run Emacs from a text console; 'emacs -nw' (or 'xemacs -nw') will ignore the setting of the DISPLAY environment variable and run in the console. If you don't have the DISPLAY environment variable set, both Emacsen will come up in this mode by default. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ Theoretical politics is interesting.

Will I need to redo the process I did for root for every user account i create ? You should run adsl-start as one of your boot scripts. I believe the roaring penguin distribution has an ADSL boot script. You can also write a ppp script that connects to dsl and calls pppoe. This is what I am doing and it works quite well. Then once you have a boot script to start pppoe, you can then use the ip-up.d and ip-down.d in /etc/ppp to do all kinds of things---start and stop the firewall, run the exim queue, etc. Once it all works, it is very nice. I believe you can also run a firewall through pppoe, but I don't know how good it is. Until or if you choose not to go with a boot script, I believe you will need to be root to run adsl-start, or else you need to put all the adsl stuff in a ppp group (dip, I think) and then put the users in group dip. I think that would work too. Brian

But then I think that regular emacs might be better for just command line.
