oh, i overlooked that tart with ":1.0".
try this:
$ xhost +
$ su
# DISPLAY=:0 synaptic
# DISPLAY=:0 synaptic
Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
(synaptic:10481): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0
maybe I should reinstall synaptic..
sorry, forget the last mail, you'r sitting in front of the box, so
it's
easier:
$ echo $DISPLAY
this gives a thing like ":0" or something
# DISPLAY=<that thing you got> synaptic
# echo $DISPLAY
:1.0
# DISPLAY=1.0 synaptic
(synaptic:15881): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: 1.0

$ sux -
(enter root password)
# synaptic
DOES WORK.
