Can you please file the xauth bug in our trac, so I can remember to look into it once this startup-rewrite headache has cleared (I think it's almost done... thanks for your patience) --Jeremy On Jun 13, 2008, at 05:22, xquartz-dev.5.mzs@spamgourmet.com wrote:
Hi,
I have tried it on my ppc and it seems to work fine. I see this one issue, I think I saw it before.
reboot login as user foo fire-up a Terminal window
$ xlsclients $ su - bar $ rm .Xauthority $ DISPLAY=:0 xlogo
The xlogo window pops-up even though I have the authenticate option set in the preferences. It should not be possible for another user to do that on the same machine unless they know the magic cookie.
If I do 'xauth list' I see that cookies never seem to be created for me.
Thanks again for the hard work.

PS: For a bit now selection in gvim has seemed a bit slower in particular when I am X11 forwarding via ssh but that is just a feeling I have never timed it before. It always seemed instantaneous and now there is the slightest pause. It may be because of something I have did in gvim though, I am using a newer gvim version recently too. _______________________________________________ Xquartz-dev mailing list Xquartz-dev@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/xquartz-dev
