Hey,
How do you guys deal with the the $DISPLAY variable in leopard? The
default on my machine dies because $DISPLAY contains a directory
name(something like: /tmp/launch-hAKQ0T/:0) which messes up getns when
getns tries to make the ns directory(tries to make a non-existent
path). I fix this by starting X11 from the terminal and setting
$DISPLAY to ':0'. How have you guys been getting around the problem?

I believe Russ just fixed the problem, try updating your sources.
