OK, you're trying to start a GUI program. Are you in an X session? If
so, I can only gather than the X session is owned by someone other than
root (as it should be). So, how did you become root?
The 2 step method:
1. su -
2. start GUI program
always works for me...

Ok, but the X is running for the user:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> su -
Password:
erikja:~ # startx
xauth: creating new authority file /root/.serverauth.3787
Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
and start again.
What to do then ?
