Otherwise /dev/xconsole is not usable ... even root seems not to able to use it as /etc/X11/xdm/GiveDevices is called by root (hopefully). @Stefan Kost: Please check if /etc/X11/xdm/GiveDevices is executed by root that is that the line id -u before chown ${USER}:tty /dev/xconsole should write out `0' The fifo device /dev/xconsole its self created in /etc/init.d/syslog but only if it does not exit: if ! test -e /dev/xconsole ; then mknod -m 0600 /dev/xconsole p chown root:tty /dev/xconsole fi which is definitly not the permission found in comment #0. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
