--- Comment #2 from Frank Reisert <bugs@rufus.in-berlin.de> ---
Same here. Turns out: when executing startx as unprivileged user xorg starts 
as if root executed startx. Xorg then tries to access files in root's home 
directory:

  xauth: timeout in locking authority file /root/serverauth.#####

would be printed on screen several times.

Nevertheless a X sessions starts but ignoring formentioned unprivileged users 
.xinitrc.

Now when executing firefox it complains again about being unable to access 
files in root's home:

  (firefox:#####): GLib-GIO-Warning**: $timestamp: Failed to create
/root/.config/glib-2.0/settings: Permission denied

and firefox is not able to read a profile.

I cannot pinpoint this behavior to a specific port. I can only say: whatever 
causes this was introduced with today's updates. But I'm quite confident this 
is why slim won't function properly.

regards
Frank
