Now to try to find the solution.... I know when an X server starts it needs to write to /tmp and the user's home directory..... Another thing I find is that it is only broken on the one user. You could create a second user and try running "startx" from that user (make sure you login as that user, do not use su).... Presuming that second user is good, then start comparing some of the files in the home directories... I think someone more X oriented may need to jump in now, though.... --Rob
