HP Motif/iX System Administrator's Supplement

Incorrect Display Specification 

Message 

Error: Can't Open display

Possible cause 

The display node name as specified on the HP 3000 host in the DISPLAY
variable or on the command line is incorrect.  The display identification
must contain at least nodename:display number.  For example mynode:0.

Action 

Correct the display specification and retry.  Display specifications are
of the form nodename:displaynum.screennum.  Usually, the display number
is 0 and the screen number is 0, so the usual form is nodename:0.0.
