Re: running browser as user different than root

[bruce]

Hi Roberto

You are 'da man!

this worked >>>>  xhost si:localuser:test

using this in the "root" term window,

and then running the cmd to fire up the test firefox browser generated
the process.

when i now run "xhost" from the root term, i see the different values.
I suppose I can "safely" delete the added item with no damage!

thanks
