Think this should be fixed in the packages? -AT On Sat, May 9, 2009 at 3:37 AM, Edgar Kalkowski <eMail@edgar-kalkowski.de> wrote:
Hi!
I think this remaining issue is because root is not normally allowed to connect to the X server. After issuing an „xhost +local:“ (the colon is essential) all connections from localhost should be allowed and thus it should work.

REMAINING ISSUES WITH ARCH GLX:
When issuing glxinfo from a konsole cli as $USER everything works fine. However, if you are su to root $UID then glxinfo fails:
[23:07 alchemy:/home/david] # glxinfo No protocol specified Error: unable to open display :0.0
Dunno if this is a bug or feature, but I thought I would pass it along. I'll file a bug report on the default config issue, fixing it will save a lot of folks a lot of heartache and newbies from thinking Linux doesn't work.
