Well, negative on the x init scripts. re-installed all the rpm's for X
including the xinit.rpm. I can log into root kde/gnome as root. And it will
start the Enlightnement as user, but will not start kde/gnome/failsafe by
startx/kdm as user. It will simply "kick back" to kdm/xdm.
Get allot of "AUDIT" errors in the xdm-error log concerning user trying to
login and localclient not being able to log in (to the respective desktop).
weird. i'm ready to just re-install. would be easier that trying to track
this at my end.
