Three possible reasons:
1. Have you installed xfree86? read the FAQ section on the web site regarding this.
2. Do you have a shell variable DISPLAY defined in your .tcshrc file in your home
directory (assuming you use tcsh as your login shell) as follows?
# tcsh syntax
if (! $?DISPLAY) then
setenv DISPLAY :0.0
endif
3. Did you launch X by executing "startx -- -quartz & or "startx -- -quartz -rootless" (if you installed rootless X)
in the shell?

Please help!
I installed Fink OK without any trouble as well as some other stuff and libraries BUT I also installed a couple of games :-)
They seemed to install OK but they don't launch! when I try to launch them I get the "Error: Can't open display" message...
I am talkin about xlincity and xfrisk ...
I am using a G4/400 with Jaguar installed (10.2.2) and the LATEST version of Fink... all is updated!
Any hints??
