Not sure whats going on here, are you trying to run xterm as root?
Xterm is an alternative terminal emulator.
Your best bet is to load gnome-terminal and then run houdini

/opt/hfs17.0/bin/{houdini,houdinifx,hindie} (pick whichever you want to run)

ah, just saw it, thank you
this gets logged soon as I try to open a shell inside houdini with Houdini>Windows>Shell
when running houdini from a terminal, all logs are in the terminal, but if You close it, they go nowhere.
is there a way to reopen a shell so You can read logs?

thanks
Martin
