Sorry for the delay. I had upgraded some packages and did not have keyboard
and mouse on X.

synaptic works perfectly with slim/openbox, from menu and from lxterminal.
Running wdm/openbox,I get this error message in lxterminal:
# synaptic
No protocol specified

(synaptic:20554): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0

----------------
I've noticed that this only happens when an X application is going to be run
as root. For example I could run gedit as a user, but got the same error when
I tried o run it as root.

----------------
This,form /var/log/syslog, might also help:
