Hi, Used zypper dup to move from 11.1 to 11.3, and now my desktop will no longer display. Well, the background displays OK, but there is no panel and right click on the desktop does not work either. When I remotely log into the machine and set $DISPLAY to :0.0 and then try to start xlock for example I get the following: -> xclock No protocol specified Error: Can't open display: :0.0 Starting a GNOME app such as just results in the following: -> gnome-terminal No protocol specified Failed to parse arguments: Cannot open display: -> echo $DISPLAY :0.0 Any ideas what's going on here and how to fix it?
