Hi Alexander, On every script that you want to run without X-connection just include the following line; gROOT->SetBatch(kFALSE); This line must be the first line appearing on your script otherwise ROOT will attempt to make an X-connection. So write your script like: { gROOT->SetBatch(kFALSE); .... what ever you want here .... } Obviously if you set the flag to kTRUE the X-connection will be made as usual (that's the default) Stelios. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alexandre Sadovski (1209)" <a.sadovski@fz-rossendorf.de> To: <roottalk@pcroot.cern.ch> Sent: Monday, March 15, 2004 9:03 AM Subject: [ROOT] Question about existance of ROOT without X-connection > Dear ROOT-ers! > > sometimes it is so nice to have an application running on a remote > computer, completely without any graphical interaction with > some other PC (for example at home).
