Comment:
TBB works for me. (My X server is started by GDM, and my `XAUTHORITY`
environment variable is set to an absolute path.)
We have had another report recently on tor-assistants that TBB for Linux
does not work when X is started by XDM, but does work when X is started by
`startxfce4`. This problem is most likely caused by a bug in how XDM and
KDM initialize the `XAUTHORITY` environment variable. We should be able
to work around that bug, but not until we know what those display managers
set `XAUTHORITY` to.
