SE-03:/home/vendion # yast2
No protocol specified
y2controlcenter: cannot connect to X server :0.0

Any clue as to what is going on?

I'm calibrating my crystal ball, ;-) so it will help to know if you use
openSUSE 11.1 Beta 1 or 2 and GNOME as a desktop.

If yes then:
Install kdm as login manager and then logout/login.
It should work.
