Huh, I logged out of root and I can run gthumb as a normal user just
fine.  Not as root though.  Weird.
  


try running `xhost +local:` from your user console.  Then you should be

btw, I can run as root.   I'm not sure what the diff is.

Does anyone know how to fix this:

system4 ~ # gthumb

I just synced, emerged it, and tried to run it for the first time.

That's normal.  See the man page for xhost.
