Hi David, I noticed something that confirms that when I launch something from my cron, it does something different that in my shell (the cron is for the same user of course). If I enter "date +%a" in the shell, it returns "mar" (="mardi", Tuesday in French). If I do that from the cron, it returns "Tue". So I guess the cron has its own locales somehow. It may have nothing to do with my problem, but it's worth noticing... And by the way, the xhost +myhost didn't help regarding my problem...(I still get Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: ) Thanks, -- Alexandre Aractingi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
