Re: [SLE] Using X programs after su?

does anybody know how to use X programs after su-ing to another user? It used to be that I could simply enter 'xhost +localhost', and it would work. But in more recent Suse distributions (currently running 9.1), it doesn't work like that anymore.

I've got 9.1 here and it works for me... Check to make sure your $DISPLAY environment variable is still set correctly after you su. -Ti
