amd64 chroot to ia32

nocturna_gr · 12-01-2005, 03:42 PM

Code:

pyros:/# export DISPLAY=:0
pyros:/# nedit
NEdit: Can't open display

I followed the how-to, but still have problems; I am now logged in via ssh and cannot get X Windows working.
Ideas?

Try export DISPLAY=0:0

Also maybe you need to run xhost+ as root on the server.

Thanks jlightner.
Do you mean DISPLAY=:0.0 ?
Any way, i've tried everything:

Code:

pyros:/# export DISPLAY=0:0
pyros:/# qemu /root/sarge-i386.img
Connected to host network interface: tun%d
sudo: unable to lookup pyros via gethostbyname()
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
tun%d: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
/etc/qemu-ifup: could not launch network script
Could not initialize SDL - exiting
pyros:/# export DISPLAY=:0.0
pyros:/# qemu /root/sarge-i386.img
Connected to host network interface: tun%d
sudo: unable to lookup pyros via gethostbyname()
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
tun%d: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
/etc/qemu-ifup: could not launch network script
Could not initialize SDL - exiting
pyros:/# xhost +
xhost:  unable to open display ":0.0"
pyros:/# export DISPLAY=0:0
pyros:/# xhost +
xhost:  unable to open display "0:0"
pyros:/#

Any other ideas? Nedit for example makes no difference; the problem isn't qemu specific...

Code:

acker@dido /tmp $ xhost -
access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect
acker@dido /tmp $ xhost +local:root
non-network local connections being added to access control list
acker@dido /tmp $ sudo su -

You may have to change xhost +local:root. The most unrestrictive is xhost +, but you should try to avoid that for security reasons I thing. I've done xhost -, to clear anything else and to show that I worked here with just +local:root. Hope this helps.
