In latest Precise live system if I run any GUI command with sudo prefix, I get can not open display error message
Hy, I doed only a minimal modified Precise based live CD based with current awailable daily live CD. I only changed the default session with GNOME3 fallback session, installed the required dependencies and hungarian language related packages. I booted the live CD with passed access=v3 parameter, the original boot logo I disabled. The system launched correctly, but if in GNOME Terminal I run any command with sudo or gksu prefix, I get can not open display error message. This is a known issue? Why happening this error in GNOME3 fallback session? Already reported this issue in Launchpad?

This happens in Unity as well. Jeremy On 01/13/2012 02:36 AM, Hammer Attila wrote: Hy, I doed only a minimal modified Precise based live CD based with current awailable daily live CD.

Hy, Jeremy, thank you the confirmation for Unity too. Rob, unfortunately su -c command suggestion doesn't help. After I change root password and run for example su -c gedit command, I get following error message the live CD: EggSMClient-WARNING **: Failed to connect to the session manager: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported ** WARNING **: Could not connect to session bus ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ Attila -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

DON'T use sudo with GUI programs! It can seriously screw up permissions on the user-specific files the program needs to run. Please try again using the *correct* command: gksudo -- Mackenzie Morgan -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

I tryed gksudo gedit command. Unfortunately I get following error message: Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: pixmap, Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: pixmap, Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: pixmap, Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: pixmap, Cannot open display: Run 'gedit --help' to see a full list of available command line options. ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ I forgotted prewious not need using sudo command in terminal to Orca prowide a11y support the root privilege launched application, because at-spi2 already prowide a11y support with gksu or gksudo launched GUI applications. Oldest GNOME 2.x based releases Orca only prowide a11y support if the GUI application need launching root privileges if used the sudo applicationname command in GNOME Terminal.
