Package: insight Version: 6.1+cvs.2004.08.11-1 Severity: normal If I do: $ echo $DISPLAY :0.0 $ sudo su - myaccount $ echo $DISPLAY
$ xeyes Error: Can't open display: $ insight Segmentation fault You can also do: $ echo $DISPLAY :0.0 $ insight correct execution $ export -n DISPLAY $ echo $DISPLAY $ insight Segmentation fault It would be nice if the "error message" was more explicit (like it is the case with xeyes for example). Maybe the bug is not in insight but in libtcl. More debug info: $ gdb insight-bin GNU gdb 6.3-debian Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
