Very Computer

Hi just installed XF 4.0.2. Compiled it myself, works great.

But when I try to run Mozilla or Quake2, I get an error that the
connections were refused. Here are the logs.
------------------------------------------------------
Mozilla...

Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0

X11 message in console...

host
-----------------------------------------------------
Quake2...

Console initialized.

------- Loading ref_softx.so -------
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
recursive shutdown
Error: VID: Could not open display [:0.0]

How do I change the connection permissions?

That usually happens when one user tries to access your display which was
opened by another user, and isn't xfree86 4.0.x specific. One fix is the
allow all local users access to your display. As the user who started X,
type:

xhost +localhost
