[FreeNX-kNX] Xserver problem when su to root.

[Robin Clayton]

I just tried 
 
su -m root
 
and that seems to have done the job
 
possibly not a gr8 solution but will do for now.
 
Cheers
 
Rob

Hi Rob,

Try instead: sudo <app>
(with YOUR password, you have to edit /etc/sudoers appropriately in
order to let this work)
