I have tried everything to solve this problem like :

export DISPLAY=:10.0
export DISPLAY=localhost:10.0

I tried also the port 0.0 but i get always the same error

after trying xhost

xhost +local:all
xhost:  unable to open display ""
xhost:  unable to open display ":10.0"

how can i fix this i thought that the X Server is not runing so i tried startx its says its runing at that port

my system is Ubuntu server edition 10.04


Solution

  • This command helped me to solve the problem:

    export DISPLAY=:0
