I installed iraf for my undergrad final year project.
I followed the procedure on http://mjhutchinson.com/journal/2006/11/05/install_iraf_on_ubuntu_edgy_amd64
but I've encountered a series of problems.
Finally I'm installed with iraf, x11iraf and ds9,
yet I can't run them properly, can anyone help me, please?
Here are the error messages:cheng@cheng-desktop:~$ su iraf
Password:
iraf@cheng-desktop% tcsh
iraf@cheng-desktop% echo $DISPLAY
:0.0
iraf@cheng-desktop% ds9
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server

You initially logged in as 'cheng' but then su to 'iraf' to run the tasks. Cheng owns the desktop and needs to give 'iraf' permission to display windows there, so in another window owned by cheng just type the command 'xhost +' to do this. The 'iraf' account isn't necessary to run IRAF so you can just start DS9 and xgterm as yourself in most cases and avoid this entirely.Cheers,
-Mike
