Fatal server error: cannot move old log file "/var/log/Xporg.0.log" to "var/log/Xorg.0.log.old"
xinit server error ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- and drops me back to the prompt. Then I get some info that says:
"xinit failed. /usr/bin/Xorg is not set uid" (could this be the problem?) "if so either use a display manager or adjust /etc/permissions.local"
Together they do make me think you have a permissions problem. /usr/bin/Xorg should be owned by root, group root and setuid root. That's 4711 Since you can't move the log file this doesn't seem to be running as root so I'd think the setuid bit if left off. But then again, maybe it *is* an ownership problem. Can you show us the result of ls -l /usr/bin/Xorg and ls -ld /var/log /var/log/Xorg* Thanks PS: It would be nice to run the 11.4 on a spare machine so you can compare (and possibly copy over or restore) settings from a 11.3 production machine. -- A program designed for inputs from people is usually stressed beyond breaking point by computer-generated inputs. -- Dennis Ritchie -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
