Hi, sorry I couldn't find out how to raise a bug report from the web site. There is a small bug in /usr/X11R6/bin/startx when $HOME contains a space character which causes problems with the tests on lines 34 and 43. Wrapping the test in quotes fixes the problem i.e. if [ -f "$userclientrc" ]; then if [ -f "$userserverrc" ]; then
The version of the file I used (I believe it is the latest) is
# $Xorg: startx.cpp,v 1.3 2000/08/17 19:54:29 cpqbld Exp $
