Re: Diety / Apt Questions.
Hi! I've been looking for a way to run root stuff under X!
I tried doing what you said and su'ing to root, and then export DISPLAY=:0
Then when I start anything X it says:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
I'm not sure what you mean by "whatever I run X on", but when I try other
numbers besides 0, it says:
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2
Any ideas / explanation of what is going on here?
Thanks Alot!
