Hi,

After an certain  amount of time applications no longer open on my
Gnome desktop, When I try to  run a program from an already opened
terminal  I get the following output:

$ gedit
No protocol specified
cannot open display:

When I log out and in the problem is solved. Is this a know bug in
Lenny? Is there a workaround?

Regards,

Aniruddha


Never seen this on lenny, but given the error message - next time it doesn't work, can you post the value of your $DISPLAY?
<ifnewbie>
type "ECHO $DISPLAY" in your terminal
</ifnewbie>
If it's not ":0.0", that's most likely the problem (but I have no idea why logging out should solve the issue)

good luck
