Hi everyone, I ran XFree86 -config which failed as it could not open /dev/io (which has root rw perms). I have the Xwrapper installed, so as Xwrapper is SUID, I suspect this is a problem that goes beyond simple file/device permissions. I should mention that I'm running in secure level 3 (I tend to be paranoid at times), and I guess this is making trouble. Is there a way to grant XFree access to /dev/io without lowering the secure level? BTW, using X(.*)-4 on 4.3.
