[Bug 671565] Re: GUI launch fails strangely when done from a secondary login, ssh -X
Same here. I just do: xhost +SI:localuser:secondUser localuser:secondUser being added to access control list su - secondUser evince foo.pdf Failed to get bus connection: Command line `dbus-launch --autolaunch=8023f57b00b816370b52ae5c0009 --binary-syntax --close-stderr' exited with non-zero exit status 1: EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus daemon\n and a Ctrl+C is needed to exit the application.

Furthermore, as I try to visualize the pdf residing in the home of the secondUser from my primary user account, it fails anyway: sudo evince ~secondUser/foo.pdf No protocol specified No protocol specified No protocol specified No protocol specified Cannot parse arguments: Cannot open display: I need to manually copy foo.pdf into my /home directory to be able to evince it. NOTE: double-clicking directly on foo.dpf with my File Manager instead opens the file smoothly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/671565 Title: GUI launch fails strangely when done from a secondary login, ssh -X To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/671565/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
