If I understand correctly, you are saying that you:

1) open a terminal window "A"
2) launch X11
3) run xterm in terminal "A" - this fails
4) open a terminal window "B"
5) run xterm in terminal "B" - this succeeds

Is this correct? If so, I don't understand how this could happen. Do you have the DISPLAY environment variable set in terminal A? In terminal B? What error do you get when an X application fails to launch?



This is correct. I also don't understand how it's possible. DISPLAY is set in terminal to :0.0. I'll take a closer look at this shortly, and give a better answer; I currently have about 10 terminals open all doing different stuff. :) closing down is non-trivial. _______________________________________________
