Does it work for root? Check some permissions and variables: ls -ld /tmp/.{ICE,X11}-unix drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Oct 19 00:02 /tmp/.ICE-unix drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Oct 20 11:18 /tmp/.X11-unix ls -l ~/.Xauthority -rw------- 1 donnie users 275 Oct 20 14:41 /home/donnie/.Xauthority $ echo $XAUTHORITY /home/donnie/.Xauthority From http://dmx.sourceforge.net/FAQ (replace Xdmx with X): Q1A. When a client tries to connect to the Xdmx server, the following error is seen FROM THE XDMX SERVER: AUDIT: <timestamp>: <pid> Xdmx: client 1 rejected from local host A1A. This means you started Xdmx with the XAUTHORITY environment variable set and/or with the -auth option, and you are not sharing (or have not created!) the magic cookie for the Xdmx display. E.g., if you started Xdmx with "Xdmx :1", then the Xdmx server and the client will both use the cookie associated with ":1". From http://mariner.cs.ucdavis.edu/slackware/doc/xfree86/xfree86-4.4rc-binary-xdm-crash.txt (emphasis added): 4. How to solve xdm/kdm refusing login problem Unfortunately, xdm (X Display Manager) refuses any login attempts after you have installed the XFree86 4.4 rc binaries. The error messages in /var/log/xdm-errors are like the following: AUDIT: Sun May 27 22:59:37 2001: 7624 X: client 2 rejected from local host Auth name: XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 ID: -1 To fix it, you need to change the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/ xdm-config, add the following line: DisplayManager*authName: MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 Somebody have proposed to change DisplayManager*authorize to `false' in xdm-config, this is not a very good solution. We want authorization for security reason. *****I do not know the option to fix it in kdm. But it should be similar.***** BTW, gdm does not have this problem.
I'm working only under mike (not a root). Only few moments in Midnight Commander, i has work under root. See log: bash-2.05b$ ls -ld /tmp/.{ICE,X11}-unix drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Окт 21 16:33 /tmp/.ICE-unix drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Окт 21 16:32 /tmp/.X11-unix bash-2.05b$ ls -l ~/.Xauthority -rw------- 1 mike users 97 Окт 21 16:32 /home/mike/.Xauthority bash-2.05b$ echo $XAUTHORITY bash-2.05b$ mc bash-2.05b$ su Password: dds root # mc Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified dds root #
BTW! Problem not in AUDIT ....!
