sounds like your trying to su and run the installer..a few ways to fix this: 1) make the directory you want to install it to and chown it so your account can write to it and load the installer using your account 2) ssh to localhost with the -X option (check to be sure X forwarding is enabled on your SSH daemon /etc/ssh/sshd_config, if not, turn it on and restart ssh). login as root(again check /etc/ssh/sshd_config to be sure rootlogin is permitted, so ssh -l root -X localhost 3) find the 'nolisten tcp' option for the X server/display manager: grep -nri "nolisten tcp" /etc/* and remove it, and restart your X server and/or your display manager, login again and do this: xhost +localhost su - export DISPLAY=:0.0 (run the installer here) 4) login to X as root and load the installer maybe there is another way too, but those are the ones that come to mind right away nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
