Error "No protocol specified" is uninformative

Submitted by pax..@..lt.org

Assigned to Xorg Project Team

Link to original bug (#25722)

Description

If eg. ~/.Xauthority is unreadable, X will spew "No protocol specified" error, but the error is singularly uninformative, and the cause cannot be found in log files either. I had to resort to strace to find out what it wanted.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have admin enable hashed storage. More information
