Accelerated X and startx on S.u.S.E. Linux 4.3

startx does not run with Accelerated X

Symptom:

X11 cannot be started via startx.

Cause:

An incomplete startx script. It is "only" looked for among the XFree servers and not among the Accelerated X servers. This will be repaired in the next edition.

Solution:

Go to the directory
/usr/X11R6/bin,
log yourself in as user root and edit the file startx. There you will find in the first line after the commentary lines:
INSTALLED_SERVERS=`ls -1 /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_*`
Please replace it by the following one:
INSTALLED_SERVERS=`ls -1 /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_* /usr/X11R6/bin/XAccel*`

Afterwards X11 should start normally.
