pypanel wont load

]$ pypanel
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pypanel", line 957, in <module>
    PyPanel(display.Display())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Xlib/display.py", line 80, in __init__
    self.display = _BaseDisplay(display)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Xlib/display.py", line 67, in __init__
    apply(protocol.display.Display.__init__, (self, ) + args, keys)

    raise error.DisplayConnectionError(self.display_name, r.reason)
Xlib.error.DisplayConnectionError: Can't connect to display ":0.0": No protocol specified

I installed pypanel and I try running it and get that error

any ideas?

Re: pypanel wont load

Which python version do you use?
I think that this happens because of Python 2.5. I have the same problem. We have to wait until someone rebuilds the package against python 2.5..

Re: pypanel wont load

pypanel is in community repo. It won't be updated until python 2.5 move to the current repo. You might want to get the PKGBUILD from ABS and rebuild it.

Re: pypanel wont load

Well, I tried to upgrade pypanel simply by rebuilding the package. But it still doesn't work. I think that I have to change something in the PKGBUILD or in setup.py, but I don't know what...
