Solved it! ------------------------------------------- $ sudo su - [user_non_x-windows] $ cat >> ~/.profile << 'EOF' # X-Windows display export DISPLAY=":0" EOF $ source ~/.profile $ sudo -H -u [user_x-windows] xauth extract - $DISPLAY | xauth merge - $ xeyes ------------------------------------------- It run Firefox, but now I'll have to investigate how run another x- browser as Konqueror. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
