I have 2 users on machine. One is "test" (main) and other is "guest". I usually work from "test" user. The problem: When i log in as "test" user, Desktop does not start and only cursor is flashing. Then I switch with Alt+F2, log in and reboot machine. Now I log in as "guest" and desktop starts successful. Then I switch with Ctrl+Alt+F2 and log in as "test" user. Then I command
  1. startx
Copy the Code

System answer:
  1. xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/test/.Xauthority
Copy the Code

Then black screen appears for 3-4 minutes. Then system answers:
  1. No protocol specified
  2. . .
  3. xinit: giving up
  4. xinit: unable to connect to X server: Resource temporarily unavailable
  5. >waiting for X server to shut down (II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.
  6. xinit: server error
  7. xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/test/.Xauthority
Copy the Code



here is startx errors output:
  1. xauth:  timeout in locking authority file /home/test/.Xauthority

If I log in as "test" and command
  1. sudo startx

then Desktop starts but user is root.

Before the problem appears, I have tried to setup remote desktop with Raspberry pi. What I did do:
  1. ssh -X [email protected] <--- Worked
  2. sudo xinit -- :1 <--- Not worked, error appears
  3. sudo xinit /usr/bin/ssh -X [email protected] -f "startlxde" -- :1 <--- Not worked, error appears
Copy the Code

Also i have installed several applications such as Remmina, krdc, and vncserver.

I will be very grateful for resolving my problem.
