I'm obviously being unclear. I am *not* proposing anything related to what uid the X server runs under. I'm proposing that, when a nonroot user types "Xorg" at the terminal, they don't cause a root-privileged X server to appear. Since I doubt that many people run Xorg directly (unless they're up to no good), this should have no observable effect. --Andy -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
