Sounds like you're using the paranoid permissions setting: /etc/permissions.paranoid: /usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg root:root 0711 Could you add the current settings of /etc/sysconfig/security? Thanks. /etc/sysconfig/security contains CHECK_PERMISSIONS="set" PERMISSION_SECURITY="secure local" /etc/permissions.secure (SuSE 10.0) contains /usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg root:root 0711 /etc/permissions.secure (SuSE 9.2) contains /usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg root:root 4711 /etc/permissions.easy (SuSE 10.0) contains /usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg root:root 4711 Seems that I have to switch to "easy" if I want to use startx. Yes, this was changed by intention. # rpm --changelog -q permissions [...] * Mo Nov 22 2004 - sndirsch@suse.de - permissions.secure: set Xorg to 0711 (4711 before) I set this to INVALID therefore. |
After updating from SuSE 9.2 professional to SuSE 10.0, the startx command fails: xauth: creating new authority file /home/wefing/.serverauth.7703 Fatal server error: Cannot move old log file ("/var/log/Xorg.0.log" to "/var/log/Xorg.0.log.old" Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support at http://wiki.X.Org for help. giving up. xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): unexpected signal 2. Reason: The file permissions for /usr/X11/bin/Xorg after the update are 711. In the SuSE 9.2 system, of which I have a copy, file permissions are 4711. Setting file permissions to 4711 in SuSE 10.0 resolves the problem.
