Hi sudheervemana,

It sounds like you can't connect to the X server (I assume you are actually running one). Have you changed users using 'su' or telnet/ssh and logged in again ? Generally, the only person who can connect to the X server is the user who started it. If you want to give other users access, try using the 'xhost' program. e.g. xhost +local:0

regards,
