Hey all, I think I found the solution to the problem. If you open a terminal and type
echo $DISPLAY it will give you something like /tmp/launch-iJIcV9/org.x:0 You need however to have :0 for $DISPLAY in order for X11 to function. My solution is the following: Modify .bashrc (for bash in xterm) or .bash_profile (for mac term) adding these lines: alias kate='export DISPLAY=:0 ; /sw/bin/kate ' alias kile='export DISPLAY=:0 ; /sw/bin/kile ' and similar to any other program you like to use. Now you can just type kate or kile and the program will start. Make sure you are in bash in xterm if you use it. Let me know if it helps, Alexei -- View this message in context: http://fink.9193.n7.nabble.com/DCOPserver-errors-when-launching-K-desktop-applications-tp6895p43673.html Sent from the fink-beginners mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How ServiceNow helps IT people transform IT departments: 1.
