Comment # 13 on bug 1025744 from Max Staudt

Okay, now I'm really confused. For me, launching terminator only results in the
following being output on the console:

  You need to run terminator in an X environment. Make sure $DISPLAY is
properly set

And that error message is printed very early on in /usr/bin/terminator . I
don't understand why it works on Leap 42.3, but not on a fresh install of
Tumbleweed (I downloaded and installed it just now).


Given the nature of the problems with Terminator, I suspect it really is a
problem with Terminator, libvte, or GTK+, neither of which are something the
Xorg team at SUSE can help much with. Sorry :(

For GTK problems, you can assign this bug to the GNOME component in the SUSE
bugzilla. As for the other pieces, I'm afraid I don't really know.


So let's assign this to the GNOME folks at SUSE - dear GNOME people, do you
know what could be wrong here, or who else we could ask? I'm not sure this is
your cup of tea either, but maybe you have an idea. Thanks!
