I installed google-chrome-stable latest version (69.0.3497.81) on my CentOS 7. Then i tried to open it but it didn't opened .So i searched for solutions on net which advised me to run it using a non-root user , which I did but still showed error:



"Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:"



I also tried changing the display variable thru root as :



DISPLAY=:0 ;
export DISPLAY



but this too isn't working .
