Perhaps you want:
$xhost +localhost
(any user connected to your machine can use the current xsession)
The better method is to:
#export XAUTHORITY=/home//.Xauthority
after su-ing (or add to /root/.bash_profile or whatever)

Hi,
This is probably a FAQ, but anyway. I'm trying to set things up so
that I can run a root Xterm should I need to. The methodology is:
xhost root@
su
/usr/X11R6/bin/Eterm --icon-name "ROOT" -n "ROOT"
--scrollbar-right -S "red" -b "red" -I
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/bomb.xpm -e bash
