Or you can put:
xhost +localhost
into your .xsession file. Note that this will let any local users on your box open windows on your X desktop. (or just type it at the command line)

The running PD part is working, the problem is that the "root" user does not have access to the display owned by another user. either you can log into X using root or you can do this:
su cp ~[your normal username here]/.Xauthority ~ export DISPLAY=':0'
/usr/local/bin/pd -rt blah blah

Hello, I am trying to run pd test 26 as root on SuSE 8.0. When I did the 'make install' as root it didn't add pd to roots path, so I am running the binary in /usr/local/bin When I do that I get the following:
reading startup file: /root/.pdrc priority 98 scheduling enabled. memory locking enabled. priority 96 scheduling enabled. memory locking enabled. Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: Invalid XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 key (failed key comparison) Application initialization failed: couldn't connect to display ":0.0" watchdog: signaling pd... watchdog: signaling pd... watchdog: signaling pd... watchdog: signaling pd...
Is there a permissions problem? or am I running the wrong binary?
Thanks, Matt
