Having installed Suse 11.4 on my new laptop, X does not start and startx does not work.
Is there any other way to invoke X? How can I set up the configuration file for X? I did that so often years ago, but I forgot the name of the program. Unfortunately Suse keeps that secret in the 11.4 manual.
Any hint would be welcome.
It is possible that you bumped into the issue many people reported here. Try disabling parallel boot: set RUN_PARALLEL="no" in /etc/sysconfig/boot -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- startx is not working in default configuration anymore (security). Recommendation given on this list: If you still want it, you can restore the setuid bit locally via /etc/permissions.local add the line: /usr/bin/Xorg root:root 4711 and run SuSEconfig --module permissions Regards, -- Mark Goldstein -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
