Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: Invalid XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 key (failed key comparison) dfm: Can't open display! Check DISPLAY variable!
i just apt-get install dfm to download a filemanger cause i have icewm

Try entering "xhost +" from an xterm connected to the X server (i.e. not after you've su'ed to another user or something). This will disable the access restrictions on X server connections.

I think its better to use "xhost +hostname", which will anly allow connections from the host name you specify. "xhost +" on its own, enables connections from any host.
