Has anyone else observed the following behaviour with beta 0.2 (that
didn't exist with beta 0.1).

-X11 launches just fine from the Administrator's account (used to
install X11) but fails from other accounts with the following console
msg:

I had something like this. I took Haroon's suggestion and did a clean re-install (sudo rm -rf /Applications/X11.app ...)

No luck though.  The original user who installed X11 works just fine.
The second user (who re-installed X11 btw) gets just a zombie
process.  X never starts.  This was working fine before 0.2.
Both users have the same .xinitrc file.  Both are administrators.
Both have fink paths setup via /sw/bin/init.sh.


It's actually the *first* user after a restart that gets to use Xll. The work-around is a loginhook to delete the log file; search the archives for the code....
