howto make root emacs open in X
I'm running a recently installed lenny with default xfce desktop.
While working in the X session I often ssh to root@localhost for a
root shell and have one running as I work. I'd like to be able to
open emacs from that root shell and have the emacs instance open in
the X session instead of a inside the root shell in console mode as it
currently does.
I've had this setup in the past ... possibly not on a debian OS so I
know it can work with some minor setup.
Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get this to happen?
