Hi all, I have Ubuntu & Fedora, both installed in my hdd. I usually boot into Ubuntu & have stable working environment there. But my brother has a peculiar liking for his home account in Fedora. Everytime he sees the computer free, he just reboots it into Fedora & i have to reboot it again to get back into my Ubuntu's account.
To get GUI's running simultaneously from both distro's, i tried the following I mounted Fedora's partition on /fedora in Ubuntu, then... [03:46][root:/> root]$ chroot /fedora ### did this from ubuntu [03:46][root:/> /]$ ### chrooted successfully [03:47][root:/> /]$ umbrello umbrello: cannot connect to X server :0.0 ### This is the ERROR [03:47][root:/> /]$ So, you see, the problem is the "cannot connect to X server :0.0". Every application gives the same prob. If i can get this thing to work, i can start KDM from the newly chrooted system & it'll probably start the KDM on next free DISPLAY number. That way, "Alt+Ctrl+F7" will have Ubuntu & "Alt+Ctrl+F8" will have Fedora. So me & my bro will happily co-exist without rebooting :-) Please help me out with the DISPLAY problem... Thanks, makuchaku _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
