So any user on your system has access to your X display? Do you care about
privacy/security? Apparently you don't. Instead these applications should be
fixed
if it's really a bug in these applications. For me it sounds as if you start
these
applications as a different user, but this user does not have access to your
display. Don't get me wrong, I believe it's fine to start 3rd party
applications
as a different user, but then you need to take care about access to your
display
yourself. Using 'su <username>' is one option. It adds the appropriate cookie
using xauth.
