I just installed fink 0.7.2 on my new OS 10.3.5 laptop (after installing 0.8.0 by mistake), and then ran "fink install gnumeric" from a terminal with no apparent trouble. But, when I tried to invoke gnumeric from the terminal (after restarting), I got the message: "(gnumeric:447): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: ".

I searched the beginners and users mailing list archives, the documentation and the FAQ, but don't see anything that seems relevant.
Umm....

http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-general.php#no-display

That didn't kind of look familiar?

(I have no idea what I'm doing, so that's easy.) I did nothing besides what I described above and have a relatively pristine machine otherwise; is there something else I should have done (or should do) to get gnumeric up and running?

Thanks,
David Romano

Start X11 before running almost any GUI-based Fink application.
