Need Help with Ntfs-Config

[CelestialDog]

I just installed ntfs-config however when i try to start it either from the menu or through Konsole I get the following message:

Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified


(ntfs-config:6043): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

Can anyone tell me what this error means ?

Re: Need Help with Ntfs-Config

you're most likely trying to execute your application as user "root"
and the X server stops user root trying to display stuff on your display.

try running your application as a "regular" user from a konsole like this:

kdesu ntfs-config

if it works, you can edit the entry in the k menu and prefix your command with "kdesu".

You where right, used sudo instead of logging in as root and it worked fine. Thanks very much for the help
