Are you trying to do that as root? If yes could be that root doesn't have right to start/run X applications.

Are you physically sitting at the Linux machine, or are you logged in remotely? If remotely, do you have an X/Windows server running on your desktop machine? If not, you need one. If you're not sure, then you probably don't.

DO YOU HAVE AN X/SERVER RUNNING ON YOUR DESKTOP? IF YOU DO NOT, YOU NEED ONE. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ONE, XTERM, XHOST, ECLIPSE, OR ANY OTHER PROGRAM THAT USES X WILL NOT WORK!

If your desktop machine is a Windows machine, and you have never installed an X/Window server, then you don't have one. You need to install either a commercial or freeware one, and run it. That will allow the remote machine's graphics libraries to display their windows on your machine.
