Subject: Requiring root access for windowmanagers?
Date: Fri, 28 Nov 2008 13:20:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ggonls$p8a$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)

Hi,

What's the consensus on requiring root access for running an OE built 
windowmanager?

Case in point: e-wm does 'renice -10', which only root is allow to do.

Proposal: remove the 'renice' so regular users can start a window 
manager as well.

regards,

Koen
