That *was* the solution in September:

I read that to mean: the solution is to add "DISPLAY:0" to the environment before attempting to start firefox. In my experience, however limited, setting DISPLAY has _always_ been required, manually or automagically. Without it, X does not know which display to use.
Today, that solution doesn't work, that's the problem. And now, we found a new solution, see below.
Neither is "a solution", they are both more or less work-arounds. The problem has not even been properly identified.
Well, I've tried it between a few different systems here, 15.1, 15.2 15.3 - I'm not having any success, so _something_ is missing. I've been looking at 'xauth', but also not having much success with that.
See the new solution found with Pit Suetterlin.
I guess you have ignored my comments on the matter. I think Pit may well have found a work-around, which is good. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.9°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes (2016 - present) We're hiring - https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Heroes
