Dear guys,
I am running monday's current, Mesa-glx for Riva, XFree 3.3.6 and
KDE 1.1.2. All from monday's ports tree.
Well, I think I can't say I am running this system, for I am getting
the following message whenever I try startx:
Authentication failed - cannot start X server.
Perhaps you do not have console ownership?
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2
giving up.
xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.
Damn, I know this must be my mistake. However, I can't seem to get
X up. However, /stand/sysinstall -> Configure -> XFree86 -> XF86Setup
works smooth. Before you mention it: yeah, yeah, I tried startx as root
against my best judgement; and no, it did not work. :)
UCONSOLE is enabled.
My .xinitrc follows at the end of this file.
What am I missing? A new authentication system? My guess. I went
through the FAQ and most of the simple docs; I must be overlooking something.
Any and all help appreciated. Please CC: to lioux@linf.unb.br, for I
am subscribed to neither freebsd-questions nor freebsd-current.
I apologize in advance for the CC: accross mailing lists.
Regards,
Mario Ferreira
ps: Please, don't flame me. /dev/null appreciates it. Thanks again.
