[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1562219] Re: Unprivileged xinit wont start in unallocated vt

2016-12-28 Thread kloszard
As for my post #14, 1) It was tested on Intel HD Graphics 3000 (only open-source drivers are available for this hardware) 2) One should launch a separate dbus instance when starting X. Without it, steam client, especially in big picture, mode stutters: xinit /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-sess

I don't know if it is real workaround but if you want to avoid running X as root you can 1. Go to one of tty1-tty6 and login as a normal user 2. run the server in the same tty you logged in, e.g. for tty6: xinit /usr/bin/openbox -- :1 vt6 Tested on ubuntu mate 16.04. -- You received this bug
