I am running Stable.  I just ran "apt-get install gimp1.2".  Then I ran gimp 
from the commandline and got:

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display

I rebooted and run gimp from the commandline and it comes up with no problem.

This question got asked recently on this list:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg51530.html

I use kdm and icewm.  Logging out of icewm does not stop X does it?  The 
reboot was my clumsy way of restarting X.  So, why does restarting X fix the 
problem above?  Is this a Gtk-ism?
