Hello All:

Thank yoju for the suggestions. I use xauth for security reasons.
The output of xauth -list  $DISPLAY on the machine that requires Psi to be
run as root is:

venueserver.lcd.utoronto.ca/unix:0  MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

#echo $DISPLAY
:0.0

Everything is as it should be from the X point of view. I do not let any
remote applications use my X server.

I am rebuild qt, qca etc and instaling it in my user directory. This way I
know there will not be any
permission issues. Any other suggestions while I am at it?

regards,

west
