Hi Rob,

By default, Devuan uses the seventh tty for X sessions. The permision is denied because xserver-xorg is not SUID root. If it is called from another SUID root program (a display manager like slim or lightdm) it will work. But first, you can try reinstalling xserver-xorg package to set the correct permissions, once created the user.

Cheers,

Aitor.






Thanks for the reply. Reinstalled xserver-xorg and xinit but no change. Checked file permissions for Xorg and xinit, SUID bit was not set. Used chmod to set SUID on both files and it is now working.
As an experiment I reinstalled xserver-xorg and xinit again and the SUID bit was removed.
