I assume you mean as a normal user you CANNOT go to X windows.. this usually is because of the Xwrapper config.. check your /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config , the default should have: allowed_users=console if you don't have this file, create it. simple way: echo "allowed_users=console" >/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config (as the root user) startx should work after that, assuming that was the problem, if it doesn't include the output from startx to help debug the problem further. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
