If you receive this error message:

1. Open evilvte and type this command exactly how you see it:

sudo touch ~/.Xauthority && sudo chown $LOGNAME ~/.Xauthority && chmod 775 ~/. Xauthority

Also, if someone found an easier way to fix it - please post it here. Thanks!
Guys, I'm on the verge of destroying my Q7 so please help me...

I've just downgraded to firmware 3.0 to install comix again. I get the "failed to run" message above, then did what ColdSun said to do in evilvte.

However, I then get the message "cannot access 'Xauthority': no such file or directory"

Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?

Any advice appreciated!
