Using "su" with the "-" option makes su run a login
shell -- you'll lose most of your user's environment
vars, including DISPLAY and XAUTHORITY. So, you'll
need to set them manually to the correct values.
Do either of the Mozilla programs give you an error
message?

I'm getting a strange display problem on my Sun Ray
170. I'm usingSolaris 9, Gnome 2 desktop and SRSS 3.0.
The Sun Ray is displaying thedesktop and I can work
with system utilities but I cannot launchapplications
such as netscape or staroffice. I get an error
saying"Cannot open display" when launching them from
the Sun Ray. On theserver itself the apps come up with
no problems. I tried changing thevalue of the
X11DisplayOffset in the/etc/ssh/sshd_config as
mentioned in an older thread but I still can'tlaunch
these apps.
This is a very frustrating problem so any help would
be great!
