Dear Alwyn and friends:
This is a key issue. I am a newbie. Could you or someone please spell
this command out precisely. What does xhost + localhost reall mean? Do
you have to enter this as a command in xterm or what? Please be specific
and illustrate it with a real example. I am tired of having to log out
of KDE and log in back as root to check for updates. You would be doing
an awful lot of people a great favor by telling us precisely how to do
this.
Thank you so much.
Benjamin
