Thanks!

Can anybody help me with this problem i have?

Here are the facts, I recently upgraded my X into XFree86-4.0.1-27mdk.
I also upgraded the required packages which almost wrecked my system.

Now, I could not start my Gnome-Terminal as an ordinary user.
My system returns me this error message:

Error: unable to fork: Interrupted system call
Gdk-ERROR **: X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server
shutdown).

So now, here's my temporary work-around. I start Xterm as user, then su
to root.
Then root's the one who runs the Gnome-Terminal. In the Gnome-Terminal,
I then
su back to user.

It works, but it's a long work around. I dunno what settings
Gnome-Terminal uses,
why it gets denied using starting an X client??? But when I do the
work-around... it
doesn't complain a thing?!...

Thanks in Advance!
