if you have samething like:
-------Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server
Xlib: PuTTY X11 proxy: wrong authentication protocol attempted
ERROR: Unable to initialize graphical environment. Most likely cause of failure is that the tool was not run using a graphical environment. Please either start your graphical user interface or set your DISPLAY variable.-----------
CHeck the following things
Looks like you've got X11 server access control
try 'xhost +'
then try again
If that doesn't work, check that your $DISPLAY var is correct - before sudo'ing do an 'echo $DISPLAY', and set the value for your new session to this value using 'export DISPLAY=<value>'
OR
most importint if you doing sudo commond to display Xwin graphics note that is not possible with sodo command
----You mentioned sudo - X11 will not forward for sudo-ed user.
It might be done with sux from SuSE or kdesu from kde, but never with su or sudo.---
