The file permissions on .Xauthority must be 400 (read and write for user ONLY). Any other file permission will cause the xauth program to reject the file.
As a final measure you can try deleting the .Xauthority file altogether. The file will be recreated the next time you log in

Re: Problem with my new machine
I do not copy all the output of id. Too long.gapan wrote: ↑24. Sep 2024, 19:12 After logging in run the following commands:What do you get?Code: Select all
id ls -lA ls -l /home
Instead I've realized that /home is empty

I suggest copying my old /home to the new one. Am I right?
Re: Problem with my new machine
Yes, but I would first try to find out why your /home is empty. Are you mounting it properly? What is the output of
?
Code: Select all
mount

Re: Problem with my new machine
It's mounted all right. So, you probably accidentally nuked it? In any case, restore your backup and it should probably be OK.

Re: Problem with my new machine
Yes, probably. Shame on meyou probably accidentally nuked it

I did it (I restored the backup) and now it is fine. Not all, because I must install a lot of packages and configure them.
Some problems arise in the installation and the configuration. For the sake of the forum, I will ask for help in anothers topics.
Thanks again.
