In future, I suspect you'll need to take questions like this that don't really have anything to do with Python to a Raspberry Pi forum or e-mail list. Or a general Linux list. Short answer: Edit /etc/sudoers and add this line somewhere in it (probably near other lines that look similar): Defaults env_keep += "DISPLAY XAUTHORITY" If that doesn't work, then you'll have to talk to folks running the Rasbian on their Pi. Sometimes XAUTHORITY isn't set. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
