Hi,
I just installed FreeBSD 4.6 (from CD distribution set) and used the
built-in installer to install XFree86 version 4.2.0.1. After fighting with
the configuration options for my video card, I got it working if I invoke
startx from the root. However, the only way I could find to run startx
from a user account was to change the SUID bit on the file
/usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86. Is this the best way to do this? Am I opening
myself up to some security problem? I am relatively new to unix, is the
normal stuff that any software installation involves?
