Hi,
   i'm new to Xserver but i've check around and can't find what's wrong with my system.

 I'm trying to get x to work with the xwin32 client on my pc.
  X work well on the console.

After setting my display, i type startx and i get:


[oracle@oradev2 oracle]$ startx


Fatal server error:
PAM authentication failed, cannot start X server.
        Perhaps you do not have console ownership?
