Since we have a current thread on X-Sessions......
How can I enable root to run programs on another user's xsession? You know, the connection refused by display 0:0 crap....
If the other session was started with "startx -- :1", then the DISPLAY for that session is "yourhostname:1". In your default session the display is ":0" So, in in the display (session) ":1" do $ xhost +yourhostname in the display ":0" do $ export DISPLAY=yourhostname:1 $ xprogram or $ xprogram -display yourhostname:1 Rafael -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
