X applications only work for Administrator

Hi Charles,

Don't know for sure, how to solve the original problem, but this one is
easy: While logged in, you can change any settings regarding your
permissions, group memberships, .. - you still have the same ACL, i.e.
you have the permissions as if nothing had changed. If you log out and
back in, you get a new ACL and therefore the changed settings become
valid.
