Hello All,

New to all this UNIX stuff, have installed Ethereal using Fink 0.7.1, X11
was already installed and had been updated to the latest version 1.1.

Have installed but cannot get it to run, get the following error message
when I try to run ethereal from the Terminal.

"(ethereal:17023): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:"

This is the message displayed in terminal when I try to run it?

The version installed is ethereal-0.10.6.

Any help appreciated.
