Hi all

I want to run ddd debugger under root.

I ran following before become root:
xhost localhost

Under root:
echo $DISPLAY
:0.0

When I run ddd:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified

Error: Can't open display: :0.0

What else I should do in FreeBSD? I'm running
7.0-PRERELEASE on i386 with KDE 3.5.8. 

Appreciate very much a reply.

Best Regards
Unga
