Re: Applications requiring root privileges not running on F25 KDE

Well, after experiencing the problem again after reboot and performing some extra research, I found contributions in the web indicating that this problem is related to 'root' being intentionally prevented (for security reasons) to connect to the non-root user's X server. The suggested command to overcome this is:

xhost local:root

to which the system responds with

non-network local connections being added to access control list

I tested and it indeed solves the problem, although it is not permanent (you have to run this command after logout or reboot again to grant root with privileges over the non-root X server).

Could anyone with knowledge on X servers indicate a robust, permanent solution?

Tks!
