Hello:
I haven't used Storm for a few months - that's why I'm so fuzzy on the
details. If I remember correctly (please don't quote me on this!) the
problem was that a program couldn't start an X session as root if the
xauthority var wasn't set properly. The catch-22 was that SAS utils had to
be run a root. I don't know if this is necessary, but it WILL work if you:
Open a shell window.
Set XAUTHORITY properly.
Run SAS _from the shell window_ by typing 'sas' (again, I think that's the
command).
After first being really impressed with Storm (that was the first time I
had ever been able to get X working at above 640x480 res) I was really
disappointed to find this bug - and then Storm's ignoring my notes about
it. It's almost unforgivable that this has been a problem for so long.
Good luck.
Mike
