Hi,
I installed a new modem. It has a wired ethernet connection to my PC. But now, every time I start an application in X, this message shows up in the terminal where it was started from:
Authorization required, but no authorization protocol specified Authorization required, but no authorization protocol specified
And those applications take much longer to start. For example, evince used to start in half a second without leaving any messages in the terminal. Now it takes about a minute, leaving lots of messages, see below.
Searching the internet, my impression is that it has something to do with the hostname. /etc/hostname is empty. Is that normal?
No, this is not normal.
What are you using to setup your connection?
Not sure what you're asking exactly. As I said, a wired ethernet connection. After installing the new modem, the system adapts to the new situation by itself.
Are you using Leap or Tumbleweed?
Tumbleweed.
Then you are probably using Network Manager to configure the network. You should see an applet, which should allow you to change the hostname. I don't use Tumbleweed, though, so I can not guide you more. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.4 x86_64 at Telcontar)
