I am trying to install a Java application on my Linux machine (Slackware). I have received the following error, and I do not understand it. Could you advise me how to approach the problem? Thank you. Here is what I get: (I see that some X11 DISPLAY variable needs to be set, but what value should I give it and how?) ~$ java -jar gate-5.0-beta1-build3048-installer.jar - ERROR - java.awt.HeadlessException: No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it. java.awt.HeadlessException: No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it. at java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment.checkHeadless(Graphic sEnvironment.java:159) at java.awt.Window.<init>(Window.java:407) at java.awt.Frame.<init>(Frame.java:402) at net.sourceforge.mlf.metouia.borders.MetouiaDotsBuf fer.<init>(MetouiaDotsBuffer.java:105) at net.sourceforge.mlf.metouia.borders.MetouiaDots.<i nit>(MetouiaDots.java:66) at net.sourceforge.mlf.metouia.borders.MetouiaToolBar Border.<init>(MetouiaToolBarBorder.java:49) at net.sourceforge.mlf.metouia.MetouiaLookAndFeel.ini tComponentDefaults(MetouiaLookAndFeel.java:241) at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicLookAndFeel.getDefault s(BasicLookAndFeel.java:130) at javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel.getDefault s(MetalLookAndFeel.java:1591) at javax.swing.UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.jav a:537) at javax.swing.UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.jav a:581) at com.izforge.izpack.installer.GUIInstaller.loadLook AndFeel(GUIInstaller.java:373) at com.izforge.izpack.installer.GUIInstaller.<init>(G UIInstaller.java:116) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInsta nce0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInsta nce(NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newI nstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:27) at java.lang.reflect.C
