This is probably a trivial and old question, but I havn't found an answer yet. I just installed BSD 4.6 and can't get XFree86 to run as a user. It works fine as root. So I figure some permission is not set correctly somewhere. I tried to chmod 4755 on startx just to see what happens, and nothing exciting happened! The error is below: Please help! and include this email address in the reply > Fatal server error: > Cannot open log file "/var/log/XFree86.0.log" > > giving up. > xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server > xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
