Cannot initialise Gnome with user account
Greetings,
I have successfully installed Gnome / GDM on 4.9. GDM initialises and the login screen appears. - I can log in as root and Gnome executes and loads. - When I attempt to use GDM and login as user, it loads x windows - not Gnome. I attempt to run GDM or startx within x windows - using xterm and I get the following rrrors: startx command: xauth: file /home/saint.serverauth.8794 does not exist fatal server error: Server is already active for display 0 If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.x0-lock and start over gdm command: WARNING: GDM file gdm-daemon-config.c: line 2041 (): Cannot run seteuid to 0: Operation not permitted GDM file gdm-daemon-config.c: line 2041 (): Cannot run seteuid to 0: Operation not permitted I do have a .xinitrc file in my home directory with exec gnome-session in the file. What am I doing wrong . . . . |

The quick answer for you might be to have a look in the menu options at the top of the GDM login window
