You need to make /usr/bin/Xorg setuid root: chmod +s /usr/bin/Xorg Maybe there is a better solution but that is a quick fix. On 11/11/19 10:06 AM, Dan Cermak wrote:
Hi list,
about a week ago I have rebooted into the (at that point) newest snapshot and since then I can no longer use xinit to launch i3 on Tumbleweed from a tty as an ordinary user. `startx` fails with the following error message:
xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open virtual console 1 (Permission denied)
(this is also the only error in ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log)
To make this even stranger: switching the graphics driver to Nvidia via `prime-select nvidia` makes X start again (unfortunately with all the Nvidia related downsides).
Switching back to the intel driver via `prime-select intel` breaks `startx` again.
Does anyone have an idea what might be the cause of this?
Thanks in advance,
Dan
