Why is it that I get this message when I try to start xwindows as a normal 
user?:

$ startx
xauth: (argv):1:  bad display name "minotaur.my.domain:0" in "list" command
xauth: (argv):1:  bad display name "minotaur.my.domain:0" in "add" command

giving up.
xinit:  No such file or directory (errno 2):  unable to connect to X server
xinit:  No such process (errno 3):  Server error.
xauth: (argv):1:  bad display name "minotaur.my.domain:0" in "remove" command


When I run X as root the mouse cursor goes completely berserk and jumps all 
around when I move the mouse.

I am using a logitech 3 button mouse (old protocol) and a Creative Blaster 
Exxtreme (Permedia 2) video card.



Here's my dmesg:
