Hello,
You have to export the variable XAUTHORITY before invoke su
export XAUTHORITY=~/.Xauthority
su
do not use the '-' in su command because this invoke the shell which read the
.profile files and over write you XAUTHORITY variable.
You will find a sample .bash_profile under /usr/share/docs/bash........
I hope it helped
Pavlos
