Maybe the conclusion that there is a problem with ~/.Xauthority is
premature. Please see previous discussions on the subject.
However, as you can see from my last mail, it just doesn't work, and I
do remember that this was a problem shared by people having their home
dir on an NFS mount, and that disabling the root_squash option resolved it.
So it would seem some sort of read access to the home dir is required
for root, which is denied due to root_squash. If it is not for
~/.Xauthority, I would not know what it would be for - I'm not an expert
on the subject.
Suggestions welcome!
