I don't have your original post, but I seem to remember you doing
something like:
export DISPLAY=something:1
Are you sure you're using :1? :1 would be some other server, other
than the default running on that host. I think, but maybe wrong,
that you really want to to use :0, not :1.
But, like I said, I don't have your original post, and therefore
can't go back to see what you're actually trying to do.
