crontab script has X server problem
- From: SuseUser9X@xxxxxxx

I have a script running thru crontab that calls a QT popup
(named shutdown_warning). The popup does not display on the
screen and the error received is:
shutdown_warning: cannot connect to X server
The script calls "shutdown_warning" from roots home directory.
The crontab is being executed from root.
It displays fine on the user console if, as root, I execute the
script and export $DISPLAY:1.0
I need this popup to display on the user console and all
remote console connections.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks -----
