    Yumex .40 for FC4

    Installed yumex .40 for FC4 from the rpm, but unable to run.

    seems to be some python errors in the application

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

    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "yumex.py", line 23, in ?
    File "yumWrapper.py", line 26, in ?
    File "/usr/src/build/535819-i386/install/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py", line 37, in ?
    RuntimeError: could not open display

    Some users had this kind errors in the past, It some kind of problem with Python / PyGtk loading from the wrong path.
    Normally pyGtk is located in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/, i dont known why it loading from the /usr/src/build/535819-i386/install/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/.

    Have you installed a fresh installation of FC4 ??
    Are you using gnome ??
    Have you deselected some packages at installation ???

    Start yumex from menu, it will ask about root pw, and no problem.
    ps. I assume you login as user, and su later, before starting yumex

    I plan to apply for Yum Extender to get included in Fedora Extra, in the future.

    Did a new install of FC4 from dvd and selected all packages for install. The only thing I can think of is I installed python-crypto separately as it was required by revelation password manager.

    when running from the menu, nothing happens, I guess it crahes during start up. thats why started a terminal, did a su and then started yumex from the command line. still get the error.

    Very weird.

    does the system-config-* application works ???
    are you working locally on the machine ???
    what kind of hardware are you using ???

    try running 'xhost +' before starting yumex.

    Edit1:
    Have you tried a reboot, i did some searching an found a reboot sometimes solves this error.
