Just installed 2.2.6 via ftp with the X stuff. Configured X to use the S3 server and things look ok in the config file but get this when I gry to startx: exeve failed for /usr/x11R6/bin/X (error 13) Now according to /usr/include/sys/errno.h and error 13 is permission denied. there is a symlink for X to /usr/X11R6/bin/xf86_s3 with lrwxrwxrwx and xf86_s3 is rw-r-r, so since no execute bits are set I'm assuming thats why the permission denied error. All the other servers are rwx-r-xr-x. Looking over my 2.1.7 X setup all servers have there are: rwsr-xr-x Is this is what's called having the suid set? I'm going to change things to rwxr-xr-x for the s3 server and try again but why would the server I want to use not be executable when all the others are? It was apparently modified the day I stup the X stuff last week. Thanks, Keith To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
