Hi, I just installed DCGUI-QT via fink, everything ran smoothly but when I try to start the application in the terminal I get this:

k3a207-2:/sw/bin jjabba$ dcgui-qt

dcgui-qt: cannot connect to X server
k3a207-2:/sw/bin jjabba$

Two issues:

1) dcgui-qt works fine with Apple's X11. If anything in fink ever asks you to install Xfree even though you have apple's X11 installed, see <http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-packages.php?phpLang=en#apple-x11-wants-xfree86>

2) "cannot connect to x server" sounds like you hadn't started Xfree86/X11. Start that first, and then run the command 'dcgui-qt' from an xterm.
