Run ipblock, nothing happens on openSUSE 11.2

[joon]

Hi,

I have installed iplist, and if I run ipblock, it asked for the root password, and then nothing happens.
So I tried to run in terminal, and I have

can't find level1.gz

error.

And then I did $ sudo ./ipblock -u, and it seems the "can't find level1.gz" error went away.
Now if I do

:/usr/sbin> sudo ./ipblock -s
:/usr/sbin> sudo ./ipblock -l

I get

Last log messages (/tmp/ipblock.log):

So it seems working.

But still if I run ipblock, it asks for the root password, and then nothing happens.

with

:/usr/sbin> sudo ./ipblock -g

, also nothing happens.

What does the logfile /tmp/ipblockUI.log say ? It's probably a java vm problem.

Here we go. Thank you!

This seems to be bug in opensuse. There is no display variable set. Starting the gui like this

DISPLAY=:0.0 /usr/sbin/ipblock -g

should work.
