When I start up my just-built Thunderbird I get this message:

What should I do?

Don't run as root?

Alternatively remove  /root/.thunderbird/ or create a new user and try running as that user.

I ran as user lfs, but got a message I've seen when testing several programs:

#########

Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused

Error: cannot open display: :0

#########

Then I removed /root/.thunderbird and ran Thunderbird as root. Same error message as before, except that when the program started up, it wanted me to configure it as a new user. So something changed.

Hi Alan,

Are you trying to run these programs in chroot? If you are, try running them on your LFS system when booted.

Also, are you running X as root (e.g. startx while root?) - if so, please run it as a normal user, as it's not recommended (primarily for security reasons) that you start/run X as root.
