DISPLAY=localhost:0 is occasionally a convenient hack to work around the myriad of broken programs/drivers that cause problems when trying to use SHM, DGA, XVideo, etc. and don't have an option to disable them.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom -- go from us in peace. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you." -- Samuel Adams, 1776 CB461C61 8AFC E3A8 7CE5 9023 B35D C26A D849 1F6E CB46 1C61 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
