RedHat 6.1 on installation fails to load the security policy file. I believe the dir is /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/Xserver/SecurityPolicy It continues to fail to load it even after install is complete and any updates are loaded. David D.W. Downey PGPKeys
Not true. Here's strace output from server startup: . . . gettimeofday({950208727, 221871}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({950208727, 311283}, NULL) = 0 open("/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy", O_RDONLY) = 4 fstat(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0444, st_size=2929, ...}) = 0 mmap(0, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x40017000 read(4, "version-1 \n\n# $XConsortium: Secu"..., 4096) = 2929 read(4, "", 4096) = 0 close(4) = 0 munmap(0x40017000, 4096) = 0 brk(0x838e000) = 0x838e000 gettimeofday({950208727, 334289}, NULL) = 0 ioctl(3, KDGKBMODE, 0x83602a0) = 0 ioctl(3, TCGETS, {B38400 opost isig icanon echo ...}) = 0 . . .
Uhh, it IS true. I get tickets evry couple of days about the security policy. I'm not in the habit of entering bugs or alerts for my health.
