The GNOME Session manager appears to be giving me serious grief. It is
giving me so much grief that I'm almost about to give up and shift to
KDE. When I try to connect to my X Server I continuously received:
GNOME-SESSION-UI: MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 authentication error
It only happens with GNOME; it never happens with KDE or a bare window
manager. I am seriously sick of having to kill my X server manually
about 10 times before it suddenly decides that I am authorised to use
it. I cannot use xauth or xhosts without a server running so adding my
credentials is not an option.
I have a number of questions:
1) Is this a bug in RedHat 6.0? (I use an unpatched almost original
version)
2) How do you connect to GNOME without a session manager?
*nb: I find session management irritating
3) How do you deprecate the level of authentication or get rid of it
totally?
