- Gio.Subprocess.new(cmdLine, Gio.SubprocessFlags.NONE);
+ let launcher = Gio.SubprocessLauncher.new(Gio.SubprocessFlags.NONE);
+ // Forward the right X11 Display for ibus-x11
+ let display = GLib.getenv('GNOME_SETUP_DISPLAY');
+ if (display)
+ launcher.setenv('DISPLAY', display, true);
+ launcher.launch(cmdLine);
