Maybe as user you're not allowed to start X ? You can use login managers such
as xdm, gdm or kdm for this.

I have not yet used Darwin, so I don't know about it, but I have used
XFree86 under MacOS X and I thought it was slower than when I used it
under Linux.
That is, of course, quite subjective (perhap

Thanks Michel,
I take your word for it however, xserver performance under
Debian/Linux woody ppc rimains limited.
Why does XFree86 in darwin perform so much better than under Linux?
At the end, XF86 is XF86 and as the video h/w is the same

He can log as root into X with startx but not as any unprivileged

so my question is :)
is this related to XdmAuth missing and is there a hack like the one

This is what -powerpc does.

Could you check if using -march=740 -mtune=740 for mplayer gives any
measurable performance benefit over the "generic" -m{arch,tune}=powerpc

There is a -powerpc package *and* and -altivec package. AFAICS only
the latter is optimized.

Mathieu,
I have upgraded the drm-trunk-modules and I am getting the exact same
problem, ie. X begins to load and then crashes to console...even with
your X config., and its giving the same error.
