Hi, I am trying to use the mysql connector for .net with monodevelop. But the "mysql" namespace does not show up. I do: sudo gacutil -i MySql.Data.dll while I am in the directory where I have the .dll. Does it have to be a special directory ? /usr/lib/mono or /usr/lib/mono/1.0 or /usr/lib/mono/

Re: separating x client from x server

2007-03-05 Thread Andreas Duffner
That's right. The program you're running *is* the X client, and it needs an X server to display its stuff on. Usually it uses the DISPLAY environment variable to find it. [...] One way that is apparently compatible with today's paranoia appears to be to use an option on ssh (I believe it's ss
