If you notice, /usr is on a different slice. The
upgrade had failed earlier because of lack of space
where /usr was. I then set up a larger slice and
moved /usr there. The upgrade then completed
so to speak.
So, isn't it curious that /home actually resides in
/usr/home and it is the regular login accts that can't
get to gnome.
After receiving your email, I ran fsck on /usr and
all was well.
Anything else I can try?

P.S. I did read the FAQ and I read it again. I checked
the localhost stuff and the FAM stuff. All is well
but it still takes root about 50 seconds to load
gnome.

Hello
I have just successfully upgrade gnome 2.4 to gnome 2.6.
Well, at least that's the message on the screen after upgrade. :)
Before the upgrade all was working well. After the upgrade
I have some problems. I cannot startx from a regular user login.
When trying, I get the following errors:
$startx
xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/robert/.Xauthority
xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/robert/.Xauthority
xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/robert/.Xauthority
xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/robert/.Xauthority
Fatal server error:
Cannot move old logfile /var/log/XFree86.0.log.old
When reporting a problem (blah, blah)
giving up.
xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to
X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.
xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/robert/.Xauthority
$
If I startx from a root login, I get to gnome but it seems to
load very
slow.
I also am not able to su from a normal login to root.
$su

P.S. If this message was duplicated, I apologize.
I received a message from my mail admin that it
could not be sent. So I am sending again.
