I must admit I have some xmodmap-commands in my .xinitrc. They worked 
fine in my 7.0-Beta1 installation. I now have upgraded to 7.0. X.org is 
7.3_1. I copied my ~/frank from one computer to another via NFS. May it 
be there went something wrong? (See below)


Check .xinitrc if it is in /root. If it is there and it works copy it over to 
the /home/user, care for permissions or make it 777.


I have only one in ~/frank.



Watch for /usr/local/lib/X11/xinit -- it will use this when you have no 
.xinitrc in the /home/user or permission is set wrong!


The file /usr/local/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc is set to r--r--r--. It seems 
to me this is somehow wrong. Should I change it, and to which value?




Such troubles I solve best when I look over it the next day. Usually I find it in two minutes then and wonder how I can have not seen such an obvious mistake..

Frank,
can you start twm when you log in as a user. It smells like some permission 
issue from xfce. You could backup the xfce files with the actual permissions 
and then set them all to 777 and try to start it.

Just an idea

Hi all!
Hope there's somebody out there who can help me with the following problem:
When I type startx as root all is coming up as expected, the X-Server 
and twm as WM. When I stop it, log in as a normal user and do the same 
there is only a grey screen with a mouse-cursor coming up and doing 
nothing until I kill the X-Server with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. On the 
original screen from which I tried to start is shown the following error 
message:


AUDIT: Thu Apr 3 20:34:48 2008 836 X: client 1 rejected from localhost 
(uid 1001)

Auth name: XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 ID: -1
Xlib: connection to 0:0 refused by server
Xlib: Protocol not supported by server

.xinitrc and .xsession both have the same contens exec startxfce4 and 
the permissions rwxr-xr-x.


Any thoughts please?

TIA Frank

If I comment out the exec startxfce4 in both files the effect is the 
same: No WM starts, just the X-Server. The interesting effect is that 
the output on the regular user's terminal is the same as above written. 
So it seems it has nothing to do with the WM I want to start.
