The user owns the display. I start up my KDE as user. I did ran xastir 
as root, but can see this is wrong.
  I did install xastir now strictly as mentioned in the install 
information, and here's what happened then running xastir as user.

What does the "Found out-of-range or non-existent value" mean ?.
What does the & in xastir & mean ?
