Description Jurii Lysenko 2024-02-10 01:23:30 UTC

suse@localhost:~/Downloads> sudo ./qt-unified-linux-x64-4.6.1-online.run
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display 
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: minimal, xcb.

Don't run the Qt installer as root.
