Hello everyone,
In my previous installations of Mandriva 10.2 and Mandriva 2006, I was able to run Firefox, and a lot of other programs, as a different user (without the current user logging off) by doing
in the console (in KDE), and simply typing "firefox". The other user's bookmarks,history and preferences would promptly show up in the new Firefox window. However, in my recent Mandriva 2007 installation, when I try to do the same thing, I get
Code:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
(mozilla-firefox-bin:17976): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
I would really like to be able to run Firefox and other programs as a different user How do I do that? Maybe through sudo, perhaps?
Thanks in advance,
Guru
