Post the output of 'ls -l /usr/bin/Xorg /dev/tty0'
(In reply to comment #3) > Post the output of 'ls -l /usr/bin/Xorg /dev/tty0' crwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4, 0 Sep 17 11:37 /dev/tty0 -rwx--x--x 1 root root 1642020 Sep 16 22:01 /usr/bin/Xorg
Well, that is just wrong, Xorg needs SUID... # ls -l /usr/bin/Xorg -rws--x--x 1 root root 1629120 2006-08-27 12:44 /usr/bin/Xorg Change your /dev/tty* permissions back, that won't fix anything. Should be: crw-rw---- 1 root root 4, 0 2006-09-16 03:06 /dev/tty0
Thanks. I'll try this in a couple of minutes. Could you tell me the ls -l /dev/vcs* I've already changed it too :(
crw-rw---- 1 root tty 7, 0 2006-09-16 03:06 /dev/vcs (or just reboot, udev will sanitize your perms)
