I had the same problem when I tried to run a simulation from my linux 
box at home, while Swarm and the simulation was compiled in 
university unix box.
Are you "in front" of the computer in which is installed Swarm?
If not, you have to set your DISPLAY variable.
( the exact commands are
from your computer you have to write
xhost +
while from a shell of the other computer you have to write
setenv DISPLAY=yourIP:0:0
then run you simulation)
Hope this help.
