Re: Unable to connect to X Server

[Peter Siska]

Hello,
I found one interesting thing, when connecting remotely,
the DISPLAY is set to various values.
when using noMachine nx DISPLAY=unix:1007.0
when using X11 forwarding DISPLAY=localhost:11.0

I get error for every of these two..
It looks like GNUstep backend can not look for proper X?
or maybe somewhere is hardcoded location localhost:0.0

So can somebody help me with this problem? How to persuade GNUstep 
backend to use
custom DISPLAY value. or I am missing something?
thanks
