After upgrading from xfree-4.3.0-r3 to 4.3.0-r4, I can no longer start X as a standard user. My current workaround is to just use gdm to let users login for X.

Please attach /var/log/XFree86.0.log, and `ls -l /var/log/{X,XFree86}`
er, /usr/X11R6/bin/{X,XFree86}
Hmm... looks like the Xwrapper wasn't setuid after 4.3.0-r4... $ ls -l /usr/X11R6/bin/{X,XFree86,Xwrapper} lrwxrwxrwx 1 root portage 8 Feb 12 02:50 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -> Xwrapper -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1858404 Feb 12 02:50 /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 -rwx--x--x 1 root root 11197 Feb 12 02:50 /usr/X11R6/bin/Xwrapper And I can't attatch the log file because... well it doesn't exist ;) ~ $ ls -l /var/log/XFree86.0.log ls: /var/log/XFree86.0.log: No such file or directory
Can someone else with 4.3.0-r4 please confirm or deny they're also getting lack of suid on /usr/X11R6/bin/X?
The other 2 systems I updated have did the suid correct... I'm gonna close this as I can't reproduce it on another system...
