Root is the only user that can run AfterStep

I am haing a problem running AfterStep logged in as a regular user. Is
this a normal problem that I am having because I did not setup AfterStep
correctly? Does everyone have to mess around with permissions in order
to get AfterStep to work properly? Is there path statements that I need
to do for the user that I am trying to get functioning with AfterStep? If
it is path statements can I put them in system script so everyone gets
these path statements?
When I type startx xwindows almost loads then comes back to the shell and
there is an error saying, /usr/share/afterstep does not exist. When I am
logged in as this regular user I can go to that directory and see all the
same files the root can see, so I don't know what to do. If it is
permissions can set them for a group as opposed to individual users. I have a
Linux book but it has very little in the way of permissions.
Thank You,
Keith
