- In Lucid Common Lisp and CMU Common Lisp, for example, when running
- under X11 I have things configured to run the supplied X11 Window based
- editor when (ed) is called (both implemented, I presume, using CLX). This
- works fine under straight X11R4. Under OpenWindows, with the default
- usage of xauthority rather than xhost, I get the following
- authorization error:
-
- Connection failure to X11.0 server unix display 0: Internal error
- during connection authorization check
-
- (xlib::x-error xlib:connection-failure :major-version 11
- :minor-version ...)
-
- Short of asking OpenWindows not to use the xauthority security
- mechanism, how can I convince OpenWindows that the editor is
- authorised!
-
- I've checked the FAQ!
-
- Thanks
