There has been some discussion about sudo and X, but I have yet to see a solution.
The problem is, with the latest update to sudo, when I try to use sudo to run a program that opens a window (example: sudo xterm) I get the error: xterm: DISPLAY is not set So I wrote the following script: #!/bin/bash echo DISPLAY is $DISPLAY When I run it using sudo before the sudo update, the output is: DISPLAY is localhost:11.0 when I run it using sudo after the update, I get: DISPLAY is Can I do something to force sudo to set the DISPLAY variable? I've seen the suggested solution to use sux, but with sux, the user has to know the root password, right? Any help would be appreciated...
