I just ran into two things sharing /usr/X11R6:
1. /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/authdir is expected to be writable *at least*
by kdm, but I guess also by xdm. This can be changed in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-config by setting:
DisplayManager*authDir: /var/run
2. /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/compiled needs to be writable. I have solved
this with a symlink to /var. Now my german keymap works in X.
I thought that someone might be interrested in that. At least it's
documented in the archives now. :-)
