    try running the app on Xterm or under any GUI shell rather than a pure console

    XLib connection to ":0.0" refused by server error

    Hi,

    I'm a fairly new user to Linux (as in, I can use it,but had help setting it up). And I can't figure out this one problem I have had with xlib as well.

    When I start a session (using gnome 2.4, Mandrake 9.2) everything works fine. Console commands work, and opening up anything like emacs and what not works fine. After an undetermined time, whether I open something or not, I get teh following error, say after trying to open emacs:

    Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
    Xlib: No protocol specified

    emacs: Cannot connect to X server :0.0.

    Basically something exactly the same as the previous post. However, after getting this error once, no new window will open, wether using the menu under mandrake, or by console. I've tried remembering when this happens by seeing what kind of programs I'm running, but as I run a bunch of things at once I don't know what could be causing it. I can, for some reason, still get new windows of firefox, I guess since it was already running. nothin crashes or anything like that.

    Other points to know, this wasn't happening before a week ago. I don't really know what I did then, but I was installing a whole bunch of rpms such as ddd and memprof, and also the new firefox 0.9.2. I don't know if any of those might've caused it, but I can't figure out how to fix it.

    btw, $display gives:

    echo $DISPLAY
    :0.0

    Let me know what else you need to help me! Thanks
