Hi,
I'm trying to run X applications without $HOME is set in the environment.
Why would you want to do that?
I'm using Openembedded(OE) and bitbake for cross-compiling. However, OE clears all the env including HOME before calling any scripts.
export XAUTHORITY=$HOME/.Xauthority unset HOME
Thank you very much, this does the trick.
I think you will have problems running KDE programs though, since they expect to find a KDE_HOME somewhere, and if HOME isn't set, they will try to use /.kde (or /.kde4), which is unlikely to work.
Ok, then I'll choose gnome counterparts of KDE programs for utils. Thanks for the quick help, Caglar -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkl5yJYACgkQ/nL+S5dojeiQRACgm4rjowK40RBCSb3p0sPfBATa Tz8Ani7iRh/F2dohonqgFOtNfmZ0Le7X =KXBp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
