For trouble-shooting/search purposes: xinit 1.3.4 by default adds current vt number to X server command line, which doesn't work when invoking startx from console prompt (at least without systemd or so) - X server starts, but is spinning 100% on CPU, failing to read from current /dev/tty* device with EIO, with keyboard disfunctional.
Possible workarounds: - pass X server path to avoid adding vt number: startx -- /usr/bin/Xwrapper - pass other vt explicitly, e.g.: startx -- vt10 (may need to give tty privileges to user) Also note, that with KMS it's possible to start non-suid Xserver (without Xwrapper), e.g. startx -- /usr/bin/X vt10 but the user needs access to vt and possibly other devices (like /dev/psaux for PS/2 mouse). -- Jakub Bogusz http://qboosh.pl/ _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
