$ gksu id kvm_open: kvm_nlist: No such file or directory uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root) LibGTop-Server: pid 8762 received eof. > Please can you try whether "xhost +local:" before "gksu gnome-system-log" > does help for you ? > Yes, it works then. Before: $ gksu gnome-system-log kvm_open: kvm_nlist: No such file or directory No protocol specified (gnome-system-log:8938): gnome-system-log-CRITICAL **: Unable to parse arguments: Cannot open display: LibGTop-Server: pid 8949 received eof. And gnome-system-log not displayed. Then do: $ xhost +local: non-network local connections being added to access control list After this gnome-system-log is displayed: $ gksu gnome-system-log kvm_open: kvm_nlist: No such file or directory $ LibGTop-Server: pid 9202 received eof. Interestingly, subsequent invocations do not produce the output to terminal: $ gksu gnome-system-log $ > Cheers > > Petr Cheers, Mike.
