That looks like a neat fix, Thilo.
But is there a weakness in the OP's access control config?
Here, on my ubuntu 10.04, unaltered and still as OOTB, starting X as
"erik", doing an "su -", then vimming anything which stands still, has
always worked, not least (I figure) because of:
$ xhost
access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect
SI:localuser:erik
SI:localuser:gdm
SI:localuser:root
So just doing an:
$ xhost +root
in ~/.bash_profile might just do it too?
