Common Issues

• X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication. BriarIDS.py: cannot connect to X server localhost:10.0
• This is due to the .Xauthority file not existing in the root base directory.
  You can fix this by doing the following as user 'pi': sudo cp ~/.Xauthority /root/
  or issuing the following command as user: 'root'
  xauth merge /home/pi/.Xauthority
  
  Update 1/7/2017: The .Xauthority process is now automated (for Raspbian) in the current build of BriarIDS and no longer needs to be manually applied. At the time of this writing (3/9/2017), you will receive an .Xauthority error for DietPI but Briar GUI still loads. Simply ignore until I get that corrected. Thx
  
  Lib-Canberra-GTK errors?
  try this: sudo apt-get install libcanberra-gtk* -y
