Hello,

I'm a new Gentoo user and I'm having somewhat strange problem with my
install (using gdm and Gnome 2.24.1 on amd64). Every time I turn on
the system and run Gnome I can't open any application. For example - if
I try to fire up terminal, "Starting terminal..." window appears in the
taskbar for a few seconds. After that, nothing happens. I have to kill X
(Ctrl+Alt+Backspace) and run Gnome again. The second time everything is
OK... Until the next reboot :)

Every time I try to start a program I get something like the following
message in my log:

AUDIT: Wed Aug  5 10:51:55 2009: 8520 X: client 17 rejected from local
host ( uid=1000 gid=1006 pid=9676 )

After some googling I found other users with the same problem (or
error message, at least :) ). They had disabled consolekit and enabling
it had helped. I've tried adding it to the USE variable, updating my
system and enabling the service, but it didn't help. Deleting the ~/.x*
files was unsuccessful too. The new version (masked) of xorg-server
didn't solve the problem.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance! :)
