If you already know, please excuse me. > Tried issuing 'export DISPLAY=myhostname:0.0' and 'echo $DISPLAY' to > see it took But when I issue YaST2 get the message below: > Cannot open display Be sure that "myhostname" is running an X server. (Is it your PC? Do you have one of the X server programs for Windows? Or maybe it's running Linux?) Also be sure that X traffic is not blocked. BETTER ... use X via SSH tunnel. >From a system with working X windows, run a command like ... ssh -X yourSLES11system ... and then 'xterm' from there (to confirm it works). If you follow the usual rules about not signing on as root, you may have additional tricks to pull. We'll cross that bridge once you have X display working. -- -- R; <>< ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/ ************************************************************ This communication, including attachments, is for the exclusive use of addressee and may contain proprietary, confidential and/or privileged information.
