rkhunter error

I am wondering why I can't open this file.

[root@localhost fedora]# gedit /etc/var/log/rkhunter/rkhunter.log
No protocol specified

(gedit:24869): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0
[root@localhost fedora]# gedit /var/log/rkhunter/rkhunter.log
No protocol specified

There is absolutely no reason why it can't be opened. I opened it
just fine earlier and now it won't open up for inspection.

Can someone help. Thanks.

bigmac

Marcel,
It's an editor for Gnome.

vi is way too difficult to use for me.
Maybe not for you but for me.

seLinux gave me a warning that there are old modules lying around and I need to clean them up.
I don't understand the text that it gave me.
Can anyone help me with command line code to fix this?

Thanks,

bigmac
