Try this:
echo $DISPLAY
This will give you the proper value of DISPLAY.
Then do:
xhost +
su - root
DISPLAY=(Here put in the value of DISPLAY given by the topmost command)
export DISPLAY
wget -q -o - http://go.ximian.com | sh

First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me. -- Pastor Martin Niemöller
