G'day
After installing the xCDroast, for initial configuration I run xCDroast as root but I get an error:
> Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
> Xlib: No protocol specified
> (xcdroast:10172): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
can anyone decipher this, pls?
cheers |

Simple fix, DON'T run it as root, never! |

yes, but the xCDroast asks to be configured by root when first run!
The message that comes after fresh installation is:
Warning:
No root configuration file found or not readable!
The superuser must start and configure X-CD-Roast first, before other users can use it.
thus my earlier said problem with Gtk error?! |

Instead of using su to go to root, use sux. |
