Hi all,
since about two weeks I have problems starting X from the console.
The error message: X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting.
The file /etc/X11/Xserver reads:
/usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86
Console
The first line in this file is the full pathname of the default X server.
The second line shows who is allowed to run the X server:
RootOnly
Console (anyone whose controlling tty is on the console)
Anybody
Any ideas where to look? root can start x just fine.
This is XFree86, version 4.0.2 from woody:
ii xfree86-common 4.0.2-1X Window System (XFree86) infrastructure
ii xserver-common 4.0.2-1files and utilities common to all X servers
ii xserver-xfree8 4.0.2-1the XFree86 X server
Regards, Bernd.
