Hi Jim,

Thank you! It works almost fine. Now I can use cint already. But there is
still a problem due to my lack of knowlodge about Unix:

When I star root, it told me that the DISPLAY is incorrect, and I have to
set it manually. I tried my ip address, "localhost:0.0", none of them
worked. What seems to be the problem?
