So, I tried to install a Java application on my Linux machine (Slackware) and I have received the following error which I fail to understand.
Here is what I get:
~$ java -jar gate-5.0-beta1-build3048-installer.jar
- ERROR -
java.awt.HeadlessException:
No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it.

Could anyone tell me how to approach this problem?
