Hi Peter,
Sadly, X11 forwarding isn't carried forward when switching users. I've
previously filed the following:
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6956421
I've documented some workarounds here:

You can skip the zones part - it's irrelevant to your problem.
Regards,
Brian

Then I typed in:
/usr/bin/firefox
Instead of starting the browser the terminal shows the output
"No display specified"
Whats wrong?
Why can I not start firefox?
