That's quite strange. DISPLAY is set in _run_xephyr() unconditionally and should be used by all X programs. I've never seen this problem and would be quite surprised by it. Maybe Ubuntu has broken Xlib?

Replying to sascha_silbe:

At least /usr/bin/sugar has DISPLAY=:0 at startup(but other environment vars from sugar-emulator are ok) after starting sugar-emulator from gnome menu.

Attached patch doesn't seem to be a hack, we just all time be sure that we use right DISPLAY.
