However, it will compile on my roommate's Slackware (the software was designed for Redhat). It uses the X Windows system, so, from what I understand, I should be able to run it from his X client and make it display on my X server. However, when I attempt to do this, I recieve the following error: Xlib: connection to "pillbox.palisor.yi.org:0.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server showeq: cannot connect to X server pillbox.palisor.yi.org:0.0 How do I give it permission to run on the display?
