Hi folks,
I have had elogv and elogviewer installed for a while. I only use
it on occasion but when I tried to use it the other day I get this
little error message:
r...@smoker / # elogviewer
No protocol specified
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:57:
GtkWarning: could not open display
Do you have the DISPLAY variable set properly in root's environment?
Apparently something got changed with a update. I tried to run
hp-setup a bit ago and it failed too. It gave this error:
No protocol specified
hp-setup: cannot connect to X server :0.0
Wait, this is more complicated than I thought. The error above
clearly mentions
display :0.0, which should be correct unless you're running multiple X
sessions.
When I 'unset DISPLAY' I get 'DISPLAY is not set'.
Do you have any files like /root/.xauthXXXXXX?
I think I can safely say yes to that question. I do have a couple. ;-)

Do I need to log out of KDE, delete those then login again? What
generates those and is something wrong that makes it create those?
Thanks.
