About an hour ago I installed zenmap on both my desktop and laptop systems running Buster and Gnome. Both had been clean installs back in October, i.e. not upgraded from any previous Debian installation. On the desktop starting "Zenmap (as root)" works as expected while on the laptop it fails to start at all. Dependencies and Recommended packages are installed. On the laptop I see the following in /var/log/user.log: Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: No protocol specified Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: No protocol specified Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: Traceback (most recent call last): Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: File "/usr/bin/zenmap", line 181, in <module> Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: import zenmapGUI.App Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/zenmapGUI/App.py", line 157, in <module> Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: import gtk Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py", line 69, in <module> Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: _init() Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py", line 57, in _init Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: warnings.warn(str(e), _gtk.Warning) Jan 3 17:09:16 nomad zenmap-root.desktop[21979]: gtk.GtkWarning: could not open display I get the same output when trying to start Zenmap from a terminal using sudo.

Hello, I believe you are experiencing this bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=880601 You can try to run gnome with xorg (instead of wayland) as a workaround. -- Samuel Henrique <samueloph>

Both systems are running wayland, so it working on one and not the other leaves me puzzled. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.

I realized this morning that I am running the desktop in Gnome Classic mode and I see this: $ ps ax | grep X 1815 tty2 Sl+ 250:50 /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg vt2 -displayfd 3 -auth /run/user/1000/gdm/Xauthority -background none -noreset -keeptty -verbose 3 22870 pts/9 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto X and on my laptop running Gnome I see: $ ps ax | grep X 28301 tty2 Sl+ 0:00 /usr/bin/Xwayland :0 -rootless -terminate -accessx -core -listen 4 -listen 5 -displayfd 6 28910 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto X I then logged into Gnome Classic on the laptop and see: $ ps ax | grep X 29206 tty2 Sl+ 0:01 /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg vt2 -displayfd 3 -auth /run/user/1000/gdm/Xauthority -background none -noreset -keeptty -verbose 3 29968 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto X and as you might expect, running zenmap as root works as expected. Thank you. I learned something again today. :-) I had been previously unaware that Gnome Classic actually runs under Xorg. I'd seen the "Gnome on Xorg" GDM menu entry but had never chosen it. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
