I have the same problem. I can run xemacs, can even latex but cannot plot or xdvi, so it's not the accounts expiring in despair. Any chance of correcting the problem before the deadline for the replication? On Sun, 19 Jan 2003, Phillip Y. Lipscy wrote:

hmm... I don't think it's a problem with R. I can run latex, but I cannot start new sessions for any of the following: xemacs, emacs, xdvi, or gv (transcript below). The sessions that I had open before this problem started run fine except for the same graphics problem Mark mentions. Can everyone else open new xemacs windows? ----------- course1:plipscy [~/gov1000]> xemacs Xlib: connection to ":20.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server Initialization error: X server not responding : ":20.0" course1:plipscy [~/gov1000]> gv finalexam.ps & [1] 6695 course1:plipscy [~/gov1000]> Xlib: connection to ":20.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server gv: Unable to open the display.

I get the same type of error that Nirmala notes; when I try to xdvi: Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server Error: Can't open display: :##.0 Where ## is my vnc session number. Are those of us using LaTeX/R and hoping to turn in work for other classes this week in trouble? Anything we can do to be able to connect again?
