1 This is DUMB, but I can't seem to be able to export my $DISPLAY.
2
3 Reason :
4 X is running on Laptop. Evo is running.
5
6 Objective:
7 SSH into Machine. (since I can't connect to :0, vino server is not
8 running) I want to shut down Evo remotely. I don't want to kill the
9 process, I want to use "evolution-1.4 --force-shutdown", but that
10 doesn't work since it complains about the $DISPLAY.
11
12 $xauth list
13 localhost.localdomain/unix:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1

15
16 $setenv $DISPLAY localhost.localdomain/unix:0
17
18 setenv not found
