I am using debian sarge. When I try to run: "sudo synaptic" I get the below warning.
(synaptic:4338): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: I have to my ~/.bash_profile file added following, according to advice from some mailing list, but it does not help: if [[ -z $DISPLAY ]]; then export DISPLAY=:0.0 fi And I ran: "sources ~/.bash_profile" right after Any suggestions? Thanks in advance :-) I am a newbie, so please do explain a little bit in detail, as I find linux enormous with commands, and possibly do give a small example *smile* Not only what to do, but also how to do *humour - smile* Many times I find examples better than "long" explanations? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
