looks like your DISPLAY variable is incorrect; this problem is unrelated
to pgaccess. If you continue getting errors like this, set your
DISPLAY to ":0.0". This is _probably_ the correct number. Use the
following command:
export DISPLAY=:0.0
to check, use:
echo $DISPLAY

It seems that you did a "su" or "telnet" to your local or another machine and then started pgaccess. Either your DISPLAY variable isn't correct (it should be something like 192.168.0.3:0 - ipaddress of the machine where your X-server runs and a display number, eg 0 for the first X-server) or you forgot to issue a "xhost +xxx" where xxx is the name or the ip address of the machine running pgaccess. It is no pgaccess problem. xclock won't work, either. I recommend using ssh with enabled X11-forwarding, that does the job of setting DISPLAY and permissions automagically. -- PGP/GPG Key-ID: http://blackhole.pca.dfn.de:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xB5A1AFE1
