[Bug 440884] 'su -' doesn't allow display access (xauth)

su just did that correctly since sux was dropped.

i`m wondering - how does/did "su" do that? i checked the coreutils sources and i don`t find any code where su does copy mit-magic-cookie (xauth) from one account to the other one... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
