This is saying it can't connect to the X server because the X server is 
rejecting it's auth credentials.

I assume you logged into X as a non-root user - in which case try running the 
usrp examples as yourself, not root.

If you need root access I suggest either using sudo, or changing permissions 
in /dev so you don't need to be root.
