In Linux, there is no default "GUI". You can open the X server and set it to display on a certain monitor (done by default in most distros) but the command line doesn't look upon that display as particularly special or unique.

So you'll need to know more about the system you're running on and where, exactly, you want the program to open on (ie which display).

not specifically an RB question...

I'd like to launch my app remotely from a secure shell, but when I type ./myApp I get "Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display"

I don't need remote access to the GUI, I'd just like to be able to launch it. Any way around this?
