I saw someone a while ago havin display variable problems with a dhcp
assigned ip. I do this on a Solaris box to get the display launched back
to a windoze box with a dhcp ip properly.
Try adding it to your .files. I'm a tcsh guy, so I make no claim about
its effectiveness in other shells.
from setenv to 0 is 1 line btw.
if ( ! ${?DISPLAY} ) then
setenv DISPLAY `who am i | tr -d \( | tr -d \) | awk '{print
$6}'`:0
endif
