Hi all,

This is pretty annoying: Xorg fills in syslog with messages like:

[2020-10-23 10:15:03] solarix genunix: [ID 864859 kern.notice] NOTICE: 
Xorg[1075]: missing privilege "sys_devices" (euid = 2903, syscall = 54) 
needed at drv_priv+0x1d#012

euid is my UID:
:; id
uid=2903(predrag_zecevic) gid=1961(admin) groups=1961(admin),1962(vboxuser)

For today only:

:; grep -E "2020-10-23.*Xorg.*missing privilege" /var/adm/messages | awk 
'{printf("%s\n", $12)}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
   75750 "sys_devices"
     173 "file_dac_search"
       4 "proc_owner"
       2 "file_dac_read"

What has to be added to /etc/security/exec_attr.d/SOME_FILE to prevent this?

Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance

Regards.
