This behavior comes from olpc-dm... Actually I don't like it that much...

Ah, good catch! But it's suspicious that .Xauthority is that old, because a fresh one should be created each time X starts. Is the hwclock set correctly? In latest builds, the cookies moved to ~/.serverauth.$$. I dunno why we put the PID there. It litters the home directory. Auth cookies are unique per-display, so ".xserverauth.$DISPLAY" would have been a better name. -- // Bernardo Innocenti - http://www.codewiz.org/ \X/ One Laptop Per Child - http://www.laptop.org/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
