The X server when started does not allow any user other than the one you started it with (including root) to access the display. To permit another user (including root) to access the display, from your normal user issue the command `xauth +localhost`. After doing that, root can access the display. When finished, you may want to issue `xauth -` from your normal user as a security precaution. Good luck. -- Collins -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
