I ran into a problem installing X and running as non-root "mkdtemp: private socket dir: Permission denied"
Root works fine, but no one else does.
help?
I was searching through the archives and found this earlier. Apparently the problem is in /tmp.
it's owned by root.root and cannot be used by anyone else.
This isn't a bug?
How do I fix this?
..chk 'man chmod', and 'info chown' for ideas. ;-)
Ok, I'll figure out how to get it to root.root -- rwxrwxrwt at some point.
But I was really surprised to find this in what's been lately a relatively stable implimentation (albeing "testing").
