Please ignore the original message.
I am ashame to tell I forgot to set DISPLAY. Setting XAUTHORITY works OK.
Please excuse me for that.

Hi all,
I need some help with running X11 application (xmessage) from a
process that stated before X11 was started.
Until now I understood that if I set the environment variable
XAUTHORITY to the same auth file that the X process is using I will be
OK without using xhost command. Recently (upgraded from a badly
patched RedHat 9 to Gentoo) this environment variable setting stopped
working.
It seems to me I do not understand the XAUTHORITY mechanism at all.

Thanks.
