I have installed latest distro Fedora 17 Linux on my Lenovo ThinkPad T61 latop. All went smooth and all works even the UPCK sensor so I do not need to type every time my password and I just swipe my finger 🙂 I have installed the latest updates on the machine and I tried to launch gedit editor from terminal and I am getting this error message:
After some time spent with search online with Linux community I have found this trick that helps and works. If you got the same error while trying to run gedit from terminal use this command ” su – ” and all works. It will fix it and even you restart the machine and run the gedit next time from terminal it will now work as usual the normal way 🙂
su - gedit
And the editor will open as expected 🙂
