Re: [bruce@perens.com: user not authorized to run the X server]
From: Joshua Shagam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Hey Bruce, are you really such a newbie that you can't read the list > archives? ;) Well, you read the archives with a web browser, and my web browser happens to run under the x server that I'm not authorized to run right now. You want me to use LYNX Eeewww! Actually, I read the archives about a week ago when this first popped up, and didn't find the answer. So, for the moment, I made XFree86 setuid-root and started it by hand, and then started the window manager and the panel. But since I'm demonstrating this system to two vice-presidents of HP in the near future, and I'm writing an article for ZDNet on why Free Software is so cool today, you folks could be nice and save me some searching. Thanks Bruce
