Posted: Thu Jul 12, 2012 2:03 am Post subject: [SOLVED]startx doesn't work for normal user |
|
|
So, I can't start x as normal user then I su. The problem is, when I su, it starts x as root and I'm in my session as root. I tried to start a new session but all I got was a black screen with a white dash in the top left corner.
Also, I don't know how to leave the Desktop Environment. The guide says to Ctrl-Alt-Backspace but it doesn't work for me. When I do that, nothing happens. When I Ctrl-Alt-F1 it does leave the Desktop and flashes some words but doesn't give me a prompt.

Hi,
* Did you make a ~/.xinitrc file?
* What Window Manager or Desktop Manager are you using?
* Is your user part of the video group?
As for you your leaving issues, Press Ctrl-Alt-F1, if you don't get a prompt your X is probably running so kill it with Ctrl-c. Or alternatively press Ctrl-Alt-F2 to get a prompt and kill your X. |

Ctrl-Alt-Backspace died a while ago. Now it only exists when you reconfigure it to. (Please don't ask me, I don't know how).
When you Ctrl-Alt-F1 back to your session (assuming you logged in to the first session) type ctr+c to kill xorg.
Now on to your problem: what does your user's .xinitrc file contain?
If you do not have xterm and twm installed, please do so. (emerge -av xterm twm) This should give an absolutely ugly, but hopefully working, environment. It will really just be a few terminals. To leave type "exit" in each one until the session closes.
Try startx again as a user and tell us what happened.
EDIT: Ahh.. I see I was beaten to the post. _________________ First things first, but not necessarily in that order.
Apologies if I take a while to respond. I'm currently working on the dematerialization circuit for my blue box. |

Hey,
I did make a ~/.xinitrc file and in it, i wrote
in it.
Is a Windows Manager like KDE, because I'm using KDE.
I didn't make my user part of any group except wheel.
I'll try leaving that way, thanks. |

You will need to add your user to video to get display, just like your user will need to be in audio if you want sound.
KDE is a desktop environment. That is a bigger structure than just a window manager, but it includes one, namely kwin. That should be fine eventually. For now, here is what I would do:
1) add my user to the video group. (gpasswd -a username video)
2) run X -retro. A useless black and white pattern with a movable cursor is success here.
3) try and run kde from the command line.
This should allow you to rule out a configuration problem with your drivers
One note about running X as root: it is very taboo. It opens all kinds of security holes. You should never do it. _________________ First things first, but not necessarily in that order.

Hi,
Could you post /var/log/Xorg.0.log or something more specific about that Xauthority problem.
Do you have the file ~/.Xauthority? If so delete it. |

Well, various pastebins exist...
Though there's an interesting error (likely unrelated directly to this problem):
(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib64/dri/i965_dri.so failed (/usr/lib64/dri/i965_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
Tell me: 'emerge -1pv mesa libdrm' ? |

I wasn't asking for you to reemerge it, at least not yet.
That was a question about the set of useflags on those packages.
Also, the part about pastebin was a strong suggestion. |

I didn't get what you were saying about pastebin. You said that various pastebins exist.
(Sorry, I'm dumb)
So, I should add bindist to my use flags? |

'bindist' is irrelevant here.
'pastebin' meant "find a pastebin of your choice and put the whole log there".
Again, I not asking you to reemerge those libs yet, just to post the output with '-1pv'.
OT: this forum could use a smiley for :sigh:, 'eyeroll' sometimes doesn't quite fit. |

oh, crap, this sounds really dumb but i'm assuming typing 'emerge -1pv mesa libdrm' won't get me the log...in that case, i dunno how to get to the log

OK, there seems to be a thing or two.
First, while IIRC nothing major uses that yet, set libkms on libdrm anyway.
Second, if I'm reading your log correctly, you should add i965 to VIDEO_CARDS in your make.conf.
After that, rebuild both mesa and libdrm (just make sure first you set it correctly) and pastebin new xorg log. |

Sorry, I couldn't reply faster. I've been busy.
Anyway, could you dumb things down to n00b language?
How do I set libkms on libdrm? Do i do this in the kernel configuration?
How exactly do i rebuild mesa and libdrm?
Thanks
EDIT--I googled and google has no idea what your talking about |

Make sure you add i915 to VIDEO_CARDS in /etc/make.conf then
Code: | echo "x11-libs/libdrm libkms" >> /etc/portage/package.use
emerge -uavDN @world |
UPDATE - MISTAKE ABOVE Add i965 to VIDEO_CARDS _________________ Good luck

So the good news is, it did finally kinda work. What happened was, when I startx in normal user, I still got a lot of messages that said something about xauthority timing out.
So when the GUI finally appeared, it showed 3 white boxes. This happened to me before when I first ran it as root but I was able to fix it by making a file called ~/.xinitrc and putting 'exec startkde' in it (without single quotes). Anyway, I made a file called ~/.xinitrc and typed exec startkde in it. However, when I try to save it, I couldn't because there was already another file that had the same name. I tried to overwrite the old one, but it said permission denied.
Should I change permissions for ~/.xinitrc?
Also, on a side note,
When I startup, it always waits for dhcpcd to start up and its kinda annoying because it takes forever and always times out. My wireless networking doesnt start automatically at start up. I need to /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 start to start networking for wireless. Is there a way where I can disable dhcpcd to start in the beginning or start wireless at startup?
Also, after I boot to my Gentoo partiiton, there's always a bunch of words that flash and then the screen blacks out. The backlight pretty much just dims until the screen is black. I can normally just fix this by hitting F3 which controls the brightness. However, this is a bit annoying and I was wondering if there was a way to get the backlight to stay on. [/code] |

athena810,
Code: | echo "exec startkde" > ~/.xinitrc |
will overwrite the file
Quote: | Should I change permissions for ~/.xinitrc? |
You can if root owns it in your home - you'll have to do it a root user. _________________ Good luck

I tried to change permissions. In root I chmod 755 ~/.xinitrc
However, in user when I tried to nano ~/.xinitrc, it came up as a new file. I'm so utterly confused. I tried to overwrite the current ~/.xinitrc but then it permission denied me. Then I chmod 777 ~/.xinitrc in root and went back to reg user and again tried to overwrite. It gave me a permission denied again. So does chmod just decided to not work for me or did I again, not add reg user to a group that I was suppose to add?
startx for user athena still gives me
Code: |

And despite changing permissions for ~/.xinitrc, I still get the three white boxes.
//.xinitrc is not a file...so now what? Im so confused, how come I dont see this file but if I try to nano it in root i see exec startkde but if I nano it in reg user i get a new file? Idk what to do.
Also, anyone have answers to these?
Quote: | Also, on a side note,
When I startup, it always waits for dhcpcd to start up and its kinda annoying because it takes forever and always times out. My wireless networking doesnt start automatically at start up. I need to /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 start to start networking for wireless. Is there a way where I can disable dhcpcd to start in the beginning or start wireless at startup?
Also, after I boot to my Gentoo partiiton, there's always a bunch of words that flash and then the screen blacks out. The backlight pretty much just dims until the screen is black. I can normally just fix this by hitting F3 which controls the brightness. However, this is a bit annoying and I was wondering if there was a way to get the backlight to stay on. |
My DNS Server is also FUBAR Windows...so it seems but strangely enough it seems to be working fine in Gentoo. So I'm not even sure if its a DNS problem..anyway, this is probably not the place to ask but you all seem to be pretty tech savvy in everything so... |
