Oh, ok thanks. But isn't this creating a n unneccesary security hole, running X as root?
Debian, Red Hat etc don't use setuid bit on Xorg, i've checked.
boot with file_caps=1
Care to expand on that?
The setuid bit has been replaced by posix file capabilities http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-posixcap.html
Just not for Xorg.
Ciao, Marcus
Sorry, what? I'm sure you are trying to help but be reasonable; four-word answers are not going to explain anything. Are you saying that Debian/RH have replaced the suid bit on Xorg with POSIX file capabilities, but SUSE hasn't, and that's why the suid bit needs to be set in SUSE? ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
