I think my problem is related to yours as well. Login to a linux brandz zone, with X11 forwarding and trying to launch my programs fail with hint about "cannot open display".
I have tried to change DISPLAY to Global_zone_IP:0.0 etc, but nothing works. This problem began after upgrading to snv_118 athena% ssh -Xl root centos5 root at centos5's password: Last login: Thu Aug 27 13:15:58 2009 from unknown-00-1f-3b-bd-2a-cb.lan [root at centos5 ~]# echo $DISPLAY [root at centos5 ~]# [root at centos5 ~]# pidgin (pidgin:2689): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_display_get_name: assertion `GDK_IS_DISPLAY (display)' failed Pidgin 2.5.8-1.el5 ** (pidgin:2689): WARNING **: cannot open display: unset [root at centos5 ~]# skype [root at centos5 ~]# [root at centos5 ~]# firefox Error: no display specified [root at centos5 ~]# -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
