Try running the command xhost + Be warned tho, it allowes ALL to connect to your X server, but it removes all permission problems :P If you want to restrict it alittle bit more you can try xhost +localhost and xhost +127.0.0.1 and xhost +0.0 Johan On Mon, 18 Mar 2002, Gregory Nowak wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm really puzzled, and somewhat frustrated. I just had to reboot, it was partly an accident. Well, after things came up, I exported the DISPLAY variable again just like Johan said, and when running things like xterm or wine, I'm again told that the display cannot be opened. Surprised, I ran "xon localhost", and was told that the connection to the server had been refused. Even more puzzled, I got my firewall, hosts.deny and hosts.allow out of the way, unplugged my network, and rebooted. However, I still got the same stuff. Naturally, I moved the 3 files back into place, rebotted, and plugged in my network (I am sending this e-mail now afterall (grin)). Does anyone know where I can start looking for the problem? If I did anything important befor that first reboot I mentioned, I have no idea what it was. Please, please help. This is starting to get annoying, I am sorry if I'm starting to sound winy and annoying too (helpless shrug).
