Ubuntu 17.10 Gnome session:
I cannot run 'sudo synaptic' because the 'su-owned' graphical windows seem to be not allowed on my 'non-su' gnome-session:
[@ll:~]$ sudo synaptic
[sudo] password for indium:
Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keyUnable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
(synaptic:9673): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0
[@ll:~]$
