Thank you Carlos for your reply. I can see your point, but that again leads me to how I can solve the problem sent with my first query:

# ./antivir-gui

WARNING: root is not in `antivir' group

ERROR: Can't connect to an X server. Please try the following:
                                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


- generate or merge `.Xauthority'. You can merge with:
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
$ xauth merge <path-to-user-with-X-rights>/.Xauthority
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



How do I set this. I cannot follow the xauth merge information, but think it maybe could be solved with yast, but how ?

did you read the error message, and try FOLLOWING
THE DIRECTIONS?

I did. But as I wrote in the first msg, I did not understand quite how to.
If I did it was a waste of time for my fellow friends here!!!


# xauth merge /home/username_here/.Xauthority

If that doesn't do it, then:

# touch /root/.Xauthority,

# ls -l .Xauthority
-rw------- 1 root root 198 Jan 24 12:17 .Xauthority

You can see, that .Xauthority exists.
and then try the xauth command again.

You still think that now ?.


TIA
