yes! I'm trying open a window xterm from ssh connection. how I'm doing:
from my windows machine ( with Win 7 ) I conneted to my X Server machine by Puty. there I run the xterm command. the X server Machine hasn't a monitor! the daemon xfs it's up but the problem still occur: -bash-3.2# echo $DISPLAY :0.0 -bash-3.2# xterm Warning: This program is an suid-root program or is being run by the root user. The full text of the error or warning message cannot be safely formatted in this environment. You may get a more descriptive message by running the program as a non-root user or by removing the suid bit on the executable. xterm Xt error: Can't open display: %s 2011/5/10 Eirik Byrkjeflot Anonsen <[email protected]>: > Usuário do Sistema <[email protected]> writes: > >> Thank you Thomas. >> >> but it wasn't work. >> >> 1- bash-3.2# xterm -display :0.0 ( here I was logged by SSH using >> Puty from my windows machine ) >> >> Warning: This program is an suid-root program or is being run by the root >> user. >> The full text of the error or warning message cannot be safely formatted >> in this environment.
