This may have already been addressed and in my tendency to ignore pd list traffic I missed the explanation, but here is what is going on.

I am running a fairly fresh install of Fedora 26. I downloaded the source to Pd, installed alsa-lib-devel and tk (for wish), then built pd using makefile.gnu. Everything works when I start pd without super user privileges, except priority 92 scheduling is denied me. When I start pd using sudo, pd doesn't start and I get the following errors on the command prompt:

>> sudo ./pd
No protocol specified
No protocol specified
application-specific initialization failed: couldn't connect to display ":0.0"

These messages are not particularly helpful for me. Anybody know what is wrong?

Cheers,

David
