Xorg doesn't start with unprivileged user
Hi all...a strange thing is happened...I usual watch a film from my pc at late night...and I set the:
Code:
shutdown -h +MINUTES but this morning when I startup my pc I noticed that when I do startx as unprivileged user X doesn't start (black screen), and if I kill it with ctrl+alt+backspace I can see in the terminal an error of "protocol not specified" when it try to load glx and nvidia driver...When I startx with root X start normally...I can't explain this...please help me... |
I doubt the shutdown had anything to do with it. More likely a change to your environment like $PATH or .bashrc. Did you change anything in your profile? How about "which startx"?

what dose the " xorg.0.log "and " boot.log" have to say about this
there will be an error listed |
Also, what are perms for /usr/bin/Xorg? It should be suid root, so the output of
Code:
ls -l /usr/bin/Xorg Quote:
John VV's pointer to check the Xorg logs will probably be more fruitful, but I would check this also if it were my system. |
the logs are GREAT
they make FUN reading so read them and learn what is NORMAL and what is NOT |
