Hi All,

I'm a newbie to Nessus.  I just installed on a Suse Linux 9.3 box.  It
installed OK but when I try and start it, I get the following error;

xxbbr@scan:~> nessus &
[1] 5190
xxbbr@scan:~>
(nessus:5190): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

The user who owns the display needs to run: xhost +

and then the xxbbr user should run something like:
export DISPLAY:0.0
