Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users DISPLAY=local_host:0.0 ; export DISPLAY Post 302478514 by citaylor on Wednesday 8th of December 2010 06:00:20 AM

No...."localhost" means the X-Windows display on the host you are logged into.
Usually you would set the DISPLAY to be the IP address of the workstation you are logged in from. For example your workstation may be 192.168.1.1 and the AIX server you are logged into is 192.168.1.2. In this instance you would set your DISPLAY=192.168.1.1:0

Again, usually the X-Windows emulation software will give you an option to set the DISPLAY variable automatically. Also X-Windows security is important. Again the emulator should sort that for you (look for options using Xauthority or xauth).

NAME
POE::Loop::Tk - a bridge that allows POE to be driven by Tk SYNOPSIS
See POE::Loop. DESCRIPTION
POE::Loop::Tk implements the interface documented in POE::Loop. Therefore it has no documentation of its own. Please see POE::Loop for more details. POE::Loop::Tk is one of two versions of the Tk event loop bridge. The other, POE::Loop::TkActiveState accommodates behavior differences in ActiveState's build of Tk. Both versions share common code in POE::Loop::TkCommon. POE::Loop::Tk dynamically selects the appropriate bridge code based on the runtime environment. SEE ALSO
POE, POE::Loop, Tk, POE::Loop::TkCommon, POE::Loop::PerlSignals. AUTHORS &; LICENSING Please see POE for more information about authors, contributors, and POE's licensing. perl v5.10.1 2010-04-11 POE::Loop::Tk(3pm)
