After a few hours of frustation, it's time to ask a question. I have 2 accounts on my machine. I use startx to start X11 as user kargl. If I then su to user sgk, I cannot fire up X clients. For example,
troutmask:kargl[202] su sgk Password: troutmask:sgk[201] gnuplot Terminal type set to 'x11' gnuplot> plot sin(x) gnuplot> gnuplot: unable to open display 'troutmask.apl.washington.edu:0' gnuplot: X11 aborted. I've tried using "xhost sgk@", but this doesn't work. The only thing I can think of that may need to be configured is PAM, but the documentation is rather incomplete. So, anyone know how to setup su to permit sgk to use X clients? -- Steve http://troutmask.apl.washington.edu/~kargl/ _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
