Hello,

When I build 'core-image-x11' on Poky, X on wont start. I am using the 
standard Poky clone with no added layers. When I manually start x I get 
the following error:

startx
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc: line 95: twm : command not found
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc: line 96: xclock : command not found
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc: line 97: xterm : command not found
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc: line 98: xterm : command not found
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc: line 99: exec : command not found

I suspect I am doing something wrong.

I found that the missing files are in 
meta-openembedded/meta-oe/recipes-graphics/*.

If this is a bug, which direction should I go to address the problem?

1) move missing recipes to oe-core
2) remove core-image-x11 from oe-core
3) remove files from xinitrc
4) none of the above, issue some where else.

regards,
Armin

Did you at some point do a build with meta-oe enabled, and then not
enabled?  There's a known bad interaction between oe-core and
meta-oe's X init scripts which results in problems like this.  The
quick fix is to wipe your tmp and rebuild (using sstate this should
take just a few minutes).

I could not recall.

Did that and still have the problem.
