less /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config [snip] allowed_users=console nice_value=0 I also tried to post less /var/log/Xorg.0.log but failed twice - maybe the file was too long? Anyhow I do not expect the problem to be in the X-Server Configuration because Xorg.0.log has no error messages (EE). In /home/sam/.xsession-errors I can see Xsession: X session started for sam at Fre Jul 25 09:07:21 CEST 2008 open: Permission denied So, in my opinion this says that users do not have permission to start X. Thanks for the inputs so far. sam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
