> are you sure you did the xhost + on the display :1 ? Yes. That was on a older mandrake so I tried display :0 on a mandrake 9.0 system. Same error. I thought maybe there was a setting in msec that might be effecting this, so I started up draksec. Under the Systems Options tab I changed 'allow_x_connections' from default (LOCAL) to ALL. No change. I restarted X thinking that maybe it needed to read the setting as it started. No change. >> I've added 'display=acrab:1' to syslinux.cfg and "'interactive' => 'gtk'" >> to auto_inst.cfg but I get errors: >> >> GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to: No such user 0. >> Gdk-ERROR **: BadAccess >> serial 115 error_code 10 request_code 143 minor_code 1 >> Gdk-ERROR **: BadShmSeg >> serial 116 error_code 155 request_code 143 minor_code 5 >> install exited abnormally :-( > exported display on ftp install is working nicely here I would love to get it working here too. Thanks for your suggestion. Do you have any other ideas? One thing that would be helpful is if I could stop the install from bailing out so that I could try some things by hand. Do you know how I can do this? As it stands it doesn't give me a chance to do anything at the console.
