It would help if you tried to be less of a condescending prick, a quick glance at the archives proves that this is an impossible concept for you to grasp, though. You've already been told why that's a stupid idea. How come everyone else can shut down X and not have it leave the .serverauth.* files everywhere? If i start up X using startx right now, and type sudo reboot, X shuts down normally and cleans up its own shit. If you're hard rebooting a machine, no wonder it isn't cleaning up after itself... -- Message will arrive in the mail. Destroy, before the FBI sees it.
