True, when login fails, it does create the .xsession-errors file. # cat ~/.xsession-errors Xsession: X session started for luser at Sun Sep 4 19:59:37 EDT 2005 That's it. Just one line, not much to go on. > check the sticky bit on /tmp. sometimed it loses the sticky bit during > installs (IIRC) and then you can't log in. Seems fine. # ls -l / | grep tmp drwxrwxrwt 7 root root 4096 Sep 4 20:17 tmp Thanks ------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ No banners.
