TIL OpenBSD still installs Xorg setuid root, yikes.

  IKR? OpenBSD should really use systemd-logind and Wayland, the way modern desktops do.

    Or just get a drm equivalent implementation that doesn't require root privileges for the modesetting Xorg driver to function.
    • anjbe 8y ago
      OpenBSD has that, but X was still kept setuid so the non-modesetting drivers would still work. Well, since yesterday obviously: https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=154050453117246&w=2 https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=154050453117246&w=2

        Unnecessarily installing binaries as setuid... for how long now? So much for secure by default.
