As the title states whenever I try to login and start the desktop environment I get kicked back to the login screen with no error message. Beforehand I was messing around with configuring dwm. I’ve tried updating through the tty and deleting dwmblocks (which is what I was messing with before all this)
Here’s the output when running startxfce4:
usr/bin/startxfce4: Starting X server
(EE)
Fatal server error:
(EE) Server is already active for display 0
if this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock and start again.

Please consult the X.org foundation support at http://wiki.x.org for help.
(EE)
Authorization required, but no authorization protocol specified
xinit: giving up
xinit: unable to connect to C server: Resource temporarily unavailable
xinit: server error
I’ve tried running it with sudo to fix the authorization error but that didn’t work
Here’s the output:

sudo pkill xAnd then try run xfce4
I get the same error unfortunately
I fixed it by uninstalling the .Xauthority file from the tty and rebooting
It’s great that you solved the problem
May I ask how you found the solution?
