I have this same problem opening any gui with root priviledges using "gksudo". I get the gkt error . . . cannot open display :0.0 However, using "kdesudo" on the same system works fine with no errors. I can successfully use the "kdesudo" command to launch gui apps as root in both Gnome and KDE sessions without error. However, the "gksudo" command fails in either type of session.
